HC Deb 03 July 1969 vol 786 c134W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Prime Minister if he is aware that the Bundestag of the Federal Republic of Germany has now approved a supplementary budget of two million Deutsche mark for AngloGerman youth exchanges for young persons from industry, commerce and the trade unions provided Her Majesty's Government was prepared to make a comparable contribution; and if he will make a statement about the Government's intention in this matter.

The Prime Minister

I am informed that an all-party motion was approved by the Bundestag on 13th June requesting the Federal Government of Germany to take steps to increase youth exchanges with Britain.

Any approach on this made by the Federal Government would of course be given careful consideration.
