§ Dame Joan Vickersasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Government will now embark upon the ratification procedure of the European Convention on Establishment which was signed by 15 member countries of the Council of Europe whereof seven have ratified this Convention so far.
§ Mr. MulleyI cannot at present add anything to the reply given by my hon. Friend the then Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs to the hon. Member for Belfast, South (Mr. Pounder) on the 25th March. I hope, however, that it will be possible to take a decision on the matter in the near future.—[Vol. 761, c.193.]
