HC Deb 16 October 1969 vol 788 cc129-30W
Q13. Mr. Roebuck

asked the Prime Minister what study he has made of the effect on the principle of collective responsibility, as practised by his Administration, of membership by Ministers of committees of Britain in Europe, the Campaign for Europe and other organizations pressing for the United Kingdom to become part of a federal Europe; and whether he will make a statement.

The prime Minister

I see no need for such a study. The position of Her Majesty's Government is quite clear on all these matters.

Q14. Mr. Roebuck

asked the Prime Minister what is the practice of Ad- ministration regarding Ministers being allowed to attend meeings of the Monnet Committee for a United States of Europe.

The Prime Minister

I would refer my hon. Friend to what I said on 22nd July in reply to a supplementary question by the right hon. Member for Barnet (Mr. Maudling).—[Vol. 787, c. 1499.]
