HC Deb 07 December 1967 vol 755 cc366-7W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on the recent intergovernmental discussions in Amsterdam on arrangements for exchange visits by scientists between the United Kingdom and Europe.

Mrs. Shirley Williams

The recent meeting in Amsterdam was not an intergovernmental meeting. It was the third in a series of meetings between representatives of the Royal Society and other European academies of science and corresponding organisations to discuss the Royal Society European Programme which seeks to promote the interchange within Europe of scientific research workers.
