HC Deb 23 October 1972 vol 843 c177W
Mr. Bishop

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proposals he now has for discussions with the European Economic Community countries on co-operation with the United States of America on space development; and when he intends to meet them.

Mr. Onslow

The question of possible co-operation with the United States in space programmes is primarily a matter for the European Space Conference. Ministers of member countries are now considering dates for possible meetings before the end of the year.
