HC Deb 25 February 1972 vol 831 cc385-8W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why European Economic Com munity Regulation of 27th February, 1970, is shown as 377/70 on page 113 of Part 16 of the European Communities secondary legislation and as 377/79 on page 3 of the Contents of Part 16.

Mr. Rippon

This is a typographical error. The entry on page 3 of the contents of Part 16 of the pre-accession series of English texts of secondary legislation of the European Communities should read "377/70".

The 42 volumes of Community secondary legislation published in the pre-accession series of English texts contain a number of minor errors, which will be corrected by the issue of an errata volume shortly.

Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why regulation 136/67 of the European Economic Community is not shown in Part 34 of the European Communities secondary legislation, as indicated on page 64 of Part 42.

Mr. Rippon

The entry on page 64 of Part 42 should refer to regulation 137/67 which duly appears in part 34 of the pre-accession series of English texts of secondary legislation of the European Communities.

Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs (1) why Regulation 2224/70 of the European Economic Community is not shown in Part 36 of the European Communities secondary legislation, as indicated on page 66 of Part 42;

(2) why Regulation 163/67 of the European Economic Community is not shown in Part 36 of the European Communities secondary legislation, as indicated on page 66 of Part 42.

Mr. Rippon

The entries on page 66 of Part 42 of the pre-accession series of English texts of secondary legislation of the European Communities relating to regulations 2224/70 and 163/67 should refer to Part 23 where the regulations in question duly appear.

Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why the decision of the European Economic Community of 18th July, 1962, relating to an advisory committee on fresh and processed fruit and vegetables is not shown in Part 28 of the European Communities secondary legislation, as indicated on page 22 of Part 42.

Mr. Rippon

Although a single misprinted entry on page 22 of Part 42 of the pre-accession series of English texts of secondary Legislation shows the European Economic Community decision of 18th July, 1962, as appearing in Part 28, five other entries on this page refer to Part 17 where the decision in question duly appears.

Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if Regulation 7b of 18th December, 1959, in Part 17 of the European Communities secondary legislation is the same as Regulation R 76/EEC of 18th December, 1959, on page 3 of Part 42; and what is its correct designation.

Mr. Rippon

Yes. The correct designation is regulation 7b/EEC.

Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why the Consultative Committee referred to in Decision 64/18 of 19th December, 1963, of the European Economic Community is referred to as an Advisory Committee in Decision 70/284 of 15th May, 1970.

Mr. Rippon

The difference is a matter of translation. The formal English language title of the Committee will be resolved in due course with the Communities.
