§ Mrs. PeacockTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is contemplating any measures to seek to prevent English football fans from travelling to the European championships in West Germany in June 1988; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MoynihanI have been asked to reply.
