HC Deb 10 December 1968 vol 775 cc94-5W
Miss Lestor

asked the Lord President of the Council why seats under the Gallery are not available to women visitors on the same basis as to men.

Mr. Peart

The rule that women have not the same rights as men to sit "Under the Gallery" has been drawn to the attention of the Services Committee, and I hope that it may be possible to make an announcement about the matter in the near future.
