Lord Speaker statement on US State Visit
23 April 2019 (updated on 23 April 2019)
In response to the announcement of President Trump's State Visit this June and specifically the question of whether this will include an address to Parliament, the Lord Speaker, Lord Fowler said:
'No request to use Westminster Hall has so far been received. If a request is made then this would need to be considered by both the Speaker of the Commons and myself. We would need to discuss the request. Clearly there is a strong case for a speech by the President particularly on such an important anniversary.'
