Evelyn Violet Elizabeth Emmet (born March 18, 1899, Cairo, Egypt—died October 10, 1980, Amberley Castle, West Sussex, England) was a British politician who served as a Conservative member of Parliament for East Grinstead (1955–64) and as chairman of the National Union of the Conservative Party (1955–56).
After obtaining a degree from Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, Evelyn traveled extensively in Europe and during World War I served as secretary to her father, James Rennell Rodd, 1st Baron Rennell of Rodd, Britain’s ambassador in Rome. In June 1923 she married Thomas Addis Emmet and took his last name. Between the wars she pursued a career in local government and served as a justice of the peace. Emmet became a member of the executive of the National Union of the Conservative Party in 1948. In 1952, though not yet a member of Parliament, she was appointed British delegate to the United Nations. On her retirement from the House of Commons in 1964, she was created a life peer, and in 1968 she became deputy chairman of committees in the House of Lords. From 1974 to 1977 she was also a member of the select committee of the House of Lords European Economic Community (later the European Community) committee.
