THE government had to get involved in the matter of No 38 Oxley Road because it has the responsibility to consider the public-interest aspects of any property with historical and heritage significance, Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean said on Monday.
He told Parliament about the formation and scope of the Ministerial Committee set up to assess the various options for the house.
