HC Deb 21 June 1973 vol 858 cc196-7W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what international agreements the United Kingdom has entered into since 1st January 1973 which are treaties in terms of Section 1(4) of the European Communities Act 1972.

Mr. John Daves

Treaties entered into by the United Kingdom after 22nd January 1972 are not regarded as Community treaties as defined in Section 1 of the European Communities Act 1972 unless they are specified in an Order in Council under Section 1(3) of the Act. No such order has been made since the one which was approved by both Houses last December. It is planned to lay a further order in the near future.
