HC Deb 18 November 1952 vol 507 cc157-8W

Mr. Lewis

asked the Minister of Works what arrangements were made by his Department to enable Members of Parliament and their wives to witness the last Coronation procession.

Mr. Eccles

In 1937 seats on stands in New Palace Yard and on Cromwell Green were assigned on payment to Members of both Houses of Parliament. They were distributed, in the case of Peers, by the Lord Chancellor and, in the case of Members of Parliament, by the Speaker.
