Representation of the People (Equal Franchise) Act 1928: Anniversaries
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what commemorations are being planned to mark the 100th anniversary of the passing of the Representation of the People Act 1928.
Answered by Seema Malhotra
We are very much aware of this significant milestone and the opportunity it represents; both for celebrating women being granted equal voting rights, and inspiring women and girls to get involved in politics.
We are working with other Departments and with women’s organisations to determine the best ways to mark the occasion.
