HC Deb 26 June 1963 vol 679 c147W
55. Mr. Costain

asked the Minister of Transport when he will announce the Government's policy regarding the building of a Channel link.

61. Sir W. Teeling

asked the Minister of Transport what progress has been made by the Anglo-French Joint Parliamentary Committee in preparing a report to the French and British Governments about the Channel Tunnel; whether he expects to make a statement before the Summer Recess; what further consideration he has given to the procedure to be followed after the report is in his hands; and to what extent this report will be treated as confidential.

Mr. Marples

The Anglo-French Official Group are in the process of completing the English and French texts for the joint report. On the procedure to be followed when I have the report and on the eventual policy to be adopted, I cannot yet add anything to the reply I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Brighton, Pavilion (Sir W. Teeling) on 3rd April this year.
