HC Deb 20 June 1972 vol 839 cc86-7W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs to what extent Treasury funds are being contributed, directly or indirectly, towards the costs of the monthly journal, "New Europe", published by the European Movement; to what extent Her Majesty's Government have or will have control over the contributors of articles to this journal; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Rippon

No Government funds are being contributed to this magazine, nor do Her Majesty's Government exercise any control over its content. Her Majesty's Government's grant to the European Movement is used only for visits, exchanges and conferences with Western European countries.
