Summary: Homosexual Law Change (Press, 5 November 1966)
On 5 November 1966, it was reported that a bill aimed at legalising homosexual conduct between consenting male adults in private is expected to progress towards becoming law in Britain. The Government has decided to allocate the required Parliamentary time for debate, indicating strong support for the measure. Political sources revealed that the Cabinet's decision was influenced by the overwhelming backing from Labour back-benchers, who are in favour of the bill. With this support, the bill is now likely to be considered in Parliament early next year.
