HC Deb 21 November 1945 vol 416 c559W
Mr. O'Brien

asked the Minister of Works why it is still necessary to debar civilian visitors from visiting the Tower of London; and if he will consider withdrawing the present rule which prevents them from doing so.

Mr. Tomlinson

It has not been possible hitherto to open the Tower of London to civilian visitors as, among other things, the number of warders available was insufficient; but arrangements, which will be announced beforehand in the Press, will be made to reopen the Tower to the general public as soon as possible.
