PIE members lobbied Parliament and demonstrated there. They issued demands that the age of consent for sexual activity should be reduced to four (years not months).
In 1977 PIE sent delegates to the NCCL conference at Swansea, and invited pro-pedophile campaigners from the Continent to come to Britain to speak. One of these was Dr Edward Brongersma, a Dutch MP, who spoke at the conference of the [[Campaign for Homosexual Equality]] in Nottingham in August 1977,in favor of reducing or abolishing the legal age of consent, and received a standing ovation.<ref> Mathew Thomson, ''Lost Freedom: The Landscape of the Child and the British Post-War Settlement,
