HC Deb 21 June 1973 vol 858 c197W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will consult Parliament before agreeing to any strengthening of the powers of the European Assembly.

Mr. John Davies

The European Commission's recent proposals, which have not yet been discussed in the Council of Ministers, are available in the Library of the House and Her Majesty's Government are considering them. Members of Parliament have, of course, the usual opportunities to raise questions or seek a debate on these proposals.
