HC Deb 06 July 1978 vol 953 c284W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Prime Minister, when he next meets President Carter, if he will discuss the President's decision to change the rules on secret and classified documents to liberalise these and to allow their public examination, in order to ascertain to what extent similar action can be taken in Great Britain in furtherance of his policy of more open government.

The Prime Minister

I have no plans to do so, although I follow changes in the practice of the United States with interest.
