HC Deb 05 April 1971 vol 815 cc33-4W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will state for the longest and more convenient stated period of time, the amounts of moneys paid or allocated from public funds to the European Movement; on what accountancy basis these moneys are allocated; and if he will give similar details for the Keep Britain Out of Europe Committee.

Mr. Rippon

The European Movement or its predecessors have received Grants-in-Aid of £2,500 per annum from 1964 to 1967 and £7,500 per annum subsequently. No Grant-in-Aid is made to the Keep Britain Out of Europe Committee.
