HC Deb 24 July 1967 vol 751 cc1-2W
Miss Harvie Anderson

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what plans he has for increasing the sales of season tickets for historic buildings under his control.

Mr. Prentice

I propose to continue and, if possible, extend the publicity arrangements described in my reply today to the hon. Member for Southend, West, (Mr. Channon).

Mr. Channon

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what information is made available to members of the public regarding the supply of season tickets for entry in the historic buildings under his control.

Mr. Prentice

Publicity includes Press advertisements, notices at monuments in my care, and references in all guidebooks and publicity material relating to monuments. Overseas, publicity is given through the British Travel Association. The success of these measures is indicated by the 70 per cent. increase in sales of season tickets over the past five years.
