§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT a detailed list of the Secondary Legislation of the Rules, Regulations and Decisions of the European Economic Community which will affect his Department and its ministerial responsibilities; in what way each such piece of legislation will affect his departmental activities; and to what extent he has met or intends to meet persons concerned, to discuss the effects of such legislation on 241W matters falling within his ministerial responsibilities.
§ Mr. GodberAlthough there is naturally some overlapping of departmental interests, the subject categories of the European Communities Secondary Legislation, as published by Her Majesty's Stationery Office, broadly indicate the Departments which they primarily concern.
My Department will take fully into account the rights and obligations created by this legislation. Interested organisations and other persons concerned have been, and will continue to be, consulted as necessary.
