HC Deb 07 May 1953 vol 515 c42W
61. Major Anstruther-Gray

asked the Minister of Works how much accommodation is available in the front windows of Government Departments for viewing the ceremony of Trooping the Colour; and who is responsible for its allocation.

Mr. Eccles

It is estimated that there is room for about 1,000 people to see the Trooping the Colour from the windows of Government buildings overlooking the parade ground. The Departments occupying the buildings control the use of the windows.
