HC Deb 05 December 1960 vol 631 c114W
70. Mr. Jeger

asked the Lord Privy Seal when it is intended to ratify the Cultural Convention with Spain signed on 12th July last.

Mr. Heath

The Cultural Convention with Spain has lain before Parliament for the established period of twenty-one sitting days and Her Majesty's Government are now ready to proceed to ratification. Subject to the completion of the necessary formalities by the Spanish Government, the Exchange of Instruments should take place early in 1961.
