HC Deb 12 March 1976 vol 907 c347W
Mr. Lamborn

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether it is proposed that bonfires should be lit on a suitable occasion next year in celebration of the Queen's Jubilee.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

Yes. Her Majesty the Queen has agreed to light, at Windsor, the first of a chain of bonfires to be established on the evening of Monday 6th June 1977. The Government are grateful to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors for undertaking to organise the principal network of bonfires, which it is hoped will be accompanied by many other bonfires that evening all over the country.
