§ Mr. Elystan Morganasked the Secretary of State for Wales how many officials from the Welsh Office are permanently stationed at Brussels for liaison with the European Economic Community; and what future developments are planned in this connection.
§ Mr. Peter ThomasNone, but several officials of my Department have had meetings with representatives of the Community in recent months. My aim is to ensure that Welsh interests continue to be adequately safeguarded but it is too early to say what precise liaison arrangements will be needed.
