§ 38. Mr. A. Hendersonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs to what extent it is the policy of Her Majesty's Government that representatives of both the Federal Republic of Germany and the East German authorities should act as advisers at the proposed four-Power Foreign Ministers' conference.
§ Mr. ProfumoThe policy of Her Majesty's Government is set out in their Note of 16th February, which said:
It is suggested that German advisers should be invited to the conference and should be consulted.How this would be applied would have to be agreed between the four Powers concerned.
§ Mr. HendersonIs it not the view of Her Majesty's Government that sooner rather than later representatives of both East Germany and West Germany should get round the council table together at such a conference at this?
§ Mr. ProfumoThat is a wider question, but if the right hon. and learned Member looks at the Answer he will see that I have given general assent to it.
