HC Deb 23 January 1967 vol 739 c188W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what representations he has made to the Government of Portugal to obtain more co-operation in international affairs from Portugal in exchange for the £5 million being spent by Her Majesty's Government to lay a cable between England and Portugal.

Mr. Mulley

None. This cable is to be laid as a commerical investment and as part of our continuing efforts to improve world communications.
