Is it open to Lords or MEPs? Theofficeprankster (talk) 22:54, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I don't see why MEPs would have any particular privileges in the Parliamentary Estate, with the possible exception of those who are also peers. Lords and Commons have separate dining facilities, and although the source does not mention clearly which of the Commons facilities allow Lords in (because I understand that a few, like some in Portcullis House and Westminster Hall, are mixed), it does say that Lords who are former MPs retain the same access privileges as serving MPs. In any case, I imagine many Lords get in as guests of MPs. Waltham, The Duke of 13:18, 15 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
