§ Q3. Mr. Ridsdaleasked the Prime Minister when he will visit Japan.
§ The Prime MinisterI have as yet no firm plans for such a visit.
§ Mr. RidsdaleIn any case, will the Prime Minister consider starting a conference similar to that which we have with the Germans at Konigswinter?
§ The Prime MinisterThere have been no contacts on the question of my visit. I have seen Press stories about it, but there has not been any decision. My right hon. Friend the Foreign Secretary recently visited Japan. I welcome the improvement which has taken place and, of course, if there were support for a Konigswinter type conference for private individuals—because the Konigswinter conference is a private one—I am sure that all of us would welcome such a development.
