HC Deb 02 August 1972 vol 842 cc132-3W
37. Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Lord President of the Council if he will arrange for the term Strangers to be replaced by the word Visitors in all parts of the House of Commons.

Mr. R. Carr

No. The word "Visitors" would not cover all those who are regarded "Strangers". For instance, Members' secretaries and the Press are not Visitors, nor are the staff of the House.
