HC Deb 08 March 1977 vol 927 c504W
79. Mr. Moonman

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will make a statement on the changes proposed by the EEC to overrule national support policies for the computer industry.

Mr. Cryer

The EEC Commission's proposals for support of the data processing industry in the Community recognise the existence of national support policies and envisage complementing them with a Community programme. The content of this programme and the scope for co-ordination with national policies will be discussed in the forthcoming examination of the Commission's proposals through the normal Council procedures.
