68. Mr. Bishop

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proposals he has now received from the United States of America regarding the rôle the United Kingdom may play in the development of post-Apollo and space shuttle projects.

None. The question of participation in the space shuttle and other components of the post-Apollo programme is one for consideration jointly by the European Space Conference countries.
