HC Deb 18 October 1971 vol 823 cc50-1W
51. Miss Lestor

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if, on Great Britain's entry into the European Economic Community, Commonwealth citizens wishing to be included as community workers will be required to renounce their own citizenship and become citizens of Great Britain.

Mr. Anthony Royle

I have nothing to add to the answer I gave to the hon. Lady on 21st June.—[Vol. 819, c. 972–3.]

52. Miss Lestor

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether East African Asians with British passports will be accepted as community workers on Great Britain's entry into the European Economic Community.

Mr. Anthony Royle

I have nothing to add at present to the answer I gave to the hon. Lady on 14th May.—[Vol. 817, c. 177.]

Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why the television authorities refused to show the film made at a cost of £2,500 for publicising the availability of the factsheets on Britain and Europe; on how many occasions it has been shown to date and to whom; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Anthony Royle

The Independent Television Authority took the view that the purpose of the film was contrary to paragraph 8, Schedule 2, of the Television Act. With regard to the cost of the film and the fact that it was not used, I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave him on 3rd August.—[Vol. 822, c. 295–6.]

Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether, in issuing his Department's Fact Sheets on Europe, in future he will include one on methods by which the public will be enabled to indicate their attitude to entry to the European Economic Community.

Mr. Anthony Royle

No.
