HC Deb 27 June 1972 vol 839 c318W
Q16. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Prime Minister whether he will publish in the Official Report a detailed list of the Secondary Legislation of the Rules, Regulations and Devisions of the European Economic Community which will affect his Department and its ministerial responsibilities; in what way each such piece of legislation will affect his Departmental activities; and to what extent he has met, or intends to meet, employers, trade unions, industrial representatives and trade associations to discuss the effects of such legislation on British industry in general and matters falling within his ministerial responsibilities.

The Prime Minister

The English texts of Secondary Legislation of the European Communities, as published by Her Majesty's Stationery Office, are classified by subject. My right hon. and hon. Friends and I maintain close contacts with a wide range of interested bodies on the consequences and opportunities arising from our entry into the European Economic Communities.
