HC Deb 18 December 1975 vol 902 c704W
28. Mr. Biffen

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement outlining the policies that are to be pursued in order to fulfil the EEC Treaty obligation concerning the free movement of capital.

Mr. Dell

We have been authorised under the EEC Treaty to maintain restrictions on capital movements because of our balance of payments difficulties. The Government are pursuing a comprehensive set of economic policies, one aim of which is to overcome these difficulties.
