HC Deb 22 February 1999 vol 326 c121W
Mr. Matthew Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many times Ministers in his Department have met their counterparts in the US Administration since 1 June 1998, indicating the dates and locations of each meeting, the Ministers involved, and the name of the US counterpart. [71964]

Mr. Straw

I am in regular contact with Janet Reno, the United States Attorney General, and have had a number of meetings with her. In the period covered by the question, I also chaired a meeting of G8 counterparts, on 16 December 1998, which was conducted by video conference, at the request of Janet Reno.

Since June 1998, there have been no other meetings between Ministers in my Department and their United States counterparts.
