HC Deb 12 November 1980 vol 992 cc209-10W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what was the outcome of the Under-Secretary of State's meeting with representatives of the Royal British Legion and the Association of Jewish Ex-Service men about the proposed march to the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday by the organisation calling itself the European Remembrance and Reconciliation Association; what action is being taken; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Brittan

The representatives expressed their members' revulsion at this proposed march. My noble Friend explained the legal and factual background and emphasised that my right hon. Friend fully shared their concern.

The right hon. Member will know that the organiser subsequently cancelled the proposed march.
