Parliament And The Public

EDM number 863 in 2002-03, proposed by Peter Bradley on 10/03/2003.

That this House acknowledges that Parliament is the most public of all out democratic institutions; deplores the fact that the people who own it must queue outside with no protection from the elements when they visit; and calls upon the House authorities urgently to introduce arrangements which show a proper respect for those whom Parliament serves.

This motion has been signed by a total of 64 MPs.
