HC Deb 23 January 1945 vol 407 c671W
Mr. Driberg

asked the hon. Member for Dulwich, as Chairman of the Kitchen Committee, if he is aware that one of the small side tables in the Members' Dining Room is reserved regularly at lunch time for a Minister, of whose identity he has been informed; and if he will either give instructions that this practice shall cease or make it possible for all hon. Members to reserve places at tables.

Sir Bracewell Smith

I am not aware that one of the small side tables in the Members' Dining Room was reserved regularly at lunch time for a Minister, and it has never been the practice for tables to be so reserved. The members of the staff have again been reminded of these instructions.
