§ 48. Sir C. Osborneasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs why, in view of the need for Parliament to retain control over policies, he invited no Member of the House of Commons to serve on the recently formed British Group of the Anglo-Soviet Consultative Committee.
§ Mr. William RodgersThe Anglo-Soviet Consultative Committee is not a policy-making body, as was made clear in the communiqué on the results of the visit of Mr. Kosygin to this country in February, 1967, a copy of which is in the Library of the House.
