asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning what is the policy with regard to the open spaces in London squares; if it is his intention to have them laid out as public gardens without railings; and why concrete posts are being erected around certain squares.

I am considering the matter raised in the first part of the Question and hope to be able to arrange a conference with the London County Council upon it at an early date. As to the last part of the Question, if the hon. and gallant Member will supply me with particulars, I will look into the matter.
