HC Deb 15 July 1965 vol 716 c103W
Mr. Cranley Onslow

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will take steps to obtain sufficient reproductions of the portraits of great parliamentarians, which were distributed overseas through official channels to mark the 700th Anniversary of Parliament, to enable sets of these to be supplied to schools in this country.

Mr. Crosland

I have already drawn the attention of local authorities and schools to display and other material, which seemed to me specially suitable for schools, prepared by the Central Office of Information to mark the 700th Anniversary of Simon de Montfort's Parliament and the 750th Anniversary of Magna Carta.
