66. Dame Irene Ward

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will now appoint a woman to sit on the British Railways Board, in view of the fact that it is the policy of Her Majesty's Government to ensure that women play a full part in the nationalised industries.

Mr. Peyton

Yes, when I have a suitable opportunity.
