HC Deb 13 May 1968 vol 764 cc178-9W
Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Lord Privy Seal what progress has been made towards opening to the public in the Summer adjournment the dining facilities in the Houses of Parliament.

Mr. Peart

This proposal was carefully considered by the Services Committee. The Committee, however, decided that, apart from the administrative and security difficulties, it would not really be appropriate for the Houses of Parliament to be used in this way.
