Commonwealth Countries

HC Deb 12 March 1975 vol 888 c139W

37. Sir A. Meyer

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations he has received during the past 12 months from Commonwealth countries regarding British membership of the EEC.

Mr. Hattersley

The Commonwealth countries naturally regard the question of British membership as one which we must decide for ourselves and there have been no official representations on the matter.
