§ 14. Mr. Dalyellasked the Minister of Overseas Development whether she will make a statement on her official visit to Canada and the United States of America.
§ Mrs. HartI shall be leaving London this evening to attend three conferences on international development which have been organised successively by Columbia University in New York, the Canadian Government at Montebello, Quebec, and the Overseas Development Council in Washington. The visit will provide a useful opportunity for informal discussions with many of those concerned with development strategy in the 70s.
§ Mr. DalyellWhen she comes back, will my right hon. Friend, as convenient, 573 produce for the House a written memorandum on her discussions on the Pearson Commission's Report and give an explanation, item by item, of what her Ministry hopes to do about it?
§ Mrs. HartThat raises a broader question. I would be glad to communicate to the House in any way appropriate the results of my discussions, but I should emphasise that a number of them will be very informal.
