HC Deb 27 November 1922 vol 159 cc284-5
59. Mr. DOYLE

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether, in view of the proportion of women electors now on the register and of the interest they take in political affairs, he is aware of the inadequate arrangements for the convenience of lady visitors to this House; and whether he will see that a separate room is placed at their disposal corresponding with the arrangements for men visitors?

The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Sir John Baird)

I should like to discuss this proposal with the hon. Member, though I doubt whether the accommodation available is sufficient to justify the adoption of his suggestion.
