HC Deb 08 July 1968 vol 768 cc6-7W
52. Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what assurances were given to Her Majesty's Government by the Greek Government about the timetable for a return to constitutional rule.

Mr. Mulley

We have received many assurances. Some have already been translated into facts. The outstanding assurance is that a referendum on a new draft Constitution will be held on 1st September. The Greek Government have not yet set a timetable for later stages in the process of a return to constitutional rule.

58. Sir C. Osborne

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will publish the terms of the reply he has sent in answer to the Greek Government's protest regarding Her Majesty's Government's present policies towards Greece.

Mr. Mulley

No written communication has been received from the Greek Government on this subject. There has therefore been no occasion to reply.
