HC Deb 23 March 1981 vol 1 c243W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will make representations to the United States Government about the importance of bringing to a successful conclusion the United Nations' Law of the Sea conference, now in its final stages; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Hurd

Her Majesty's Government continue to consult closely with the United States Government on law of the sea matters. Our desire for the early conclusion of an acceptable convention is well known to the United States.
