SIR HENRY FOWLER
(Wolverhampton, E.)
I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether he can improve the system of lighting the inside of Palace Yard in the same manner as that adopted on the, frontages to Parliament Square and Bridge Street — namely, incandescent lamps.
THE FIRST COMMISSIONER OF WORKS
(Mr. AKERS DOUGLAS, Kent, St. Augustine's)
I should be glad to improve the lighting of Palace Yard, but the introduction of the incandescent system would involve certain alterations, for the cost of which there is no provision in the Estimates. I regret, therefore, that the matter must be postponed.
