HC Deb 12 April 1988 vol 131 c39W
Mr. Ian Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment whether, in the light of the findings of the Cecchini report, published by the European Community on 31 March relating to the benefits to the European Community as a whole from achieving a single market, he will assess the employment implications for the United Kingdom of realising this 1992 target.

Mr. Cope

This Department had undertaken a preliminary look at the employment implications of the completion of the single market before the Cecchini report was published. It is considering what work will be necessary to assess these implications further.
