HC Deb 24 May 1973 vol 857 cc128-9W
Mr. Charles Morrison

asked the Prime Minister if he will make a statement on his talks with President Pompidou.

The Prime Minister

I had three long talks with President Pompidou on 21st and 22nd May. I welcomed this opportunity, at our first meeting since Britain joined the Community, to review the major issues which concern our two Governments. We covered a wide range of subjects, including developments within the Community, the Community's external relations, economic and monetary matters, bilateral questions including the Channel Tunnel and the Concorde and Jaguar programmes and a number of broad foreign policy issues. This was a valuable meeting in the series of periodical discussions with the President.
