HC Deb 24 November 1969 vol 792 c21W
Mr. Donald Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when he expects negotiations to be reopened with Spain to remove the restrictions at present being enforced against the Gibraltarians; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. George Thomson

There are no plans for formal talks. We are in normal diplomatic contact with the Spanish Government and have made our views on Gibraltar known to them: it is important to explore any possibility of improving the situation.
