HC Deb 06 July 1976 vol 914 c465W
29. Mr. Jay

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether, in the absence of any jurisdiction over education in the Treaty of Rome, he proposes further to ask the approval of Parliament for EEC Document 82/263/ 76 on education.

Mr. Mulley

The Resolution R 263/76 was adopted having regard to the Treaties establishing the European Communities. It was examined by the Select Committee on European Secondary Legislation, although it contains no proposals for legislation, and it was also subsequently debated on the Floor of the House. In these circumstances, and given the pressure of other important business on the parliamentary timetable, I doubt that time could justifiably be found for a further debate on this issue.
