HC Deb 28 November 1966 vol 737 cc18-9W
81. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what discussions he had during his visit to Bonn on reconciling the Government's wages and incomes policy with the provisions of the Treaty of Rome so as to facilitate the United Kingdom's entry into the European Economic Community.

Mr. George Brown

None. There is nothing in the Treaty of Rome nor in the arrangements made under it that would limit the freedom of the Government to pursue their prices and incomes policy, so that my hon. Friend's question does not arise.
