Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Lord President of the Council whether he will ensure that whatever action may be taken by the Government to facilitate Members of Parliament in travel to and assistance towards their work in connection with the Common Market countries will be equally available to businessmen, company directors, journalists, students and all taxpayers engaged in work connected with the furtherance of trade and understanding between Great Britain and the European Economic Community.

Mr. R. Carr

While the Government will encourage the widespread development of co-operation and understanding with Common Market countries, they have a special responsibility to assist hon. Members to carry out their duties n connection with the Communities and their institutions.
