HC Deb 08 April 1957 vol 568 c83W
8. Sir J. Hutchison

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Government is now prepared to enter into discussions with other European nations to provide guarantees for the safety of existing pipelines, and for the sanctity of contracts already entered into for the production of oil in Middle East countries.

Mr. Ormsby-Gore

Not at this stage. I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given by the Prime Minister to the hon. Member for Wednesbury (Mr. Stone-house) on 4th April.
