HC Deb 22 October 1969 vol 788 c265W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether, in putting forward the United Kingdom application to the Common Market, Her Majesty's Government will give an assurance that the Crofters Commission and the Highlands and Islands Development Board will continue in existence.

Mr. Ross

The United Kingdom application, which is already tabled, does not affect the existence of these bodies.
