HC Deb 18 July 1978 vol 954 cc140-1W
Q35. Mr. Hooley

asked the Prime Minister in what ways he intends to follow up the proposal, made in his recent speech in the United States of America, for a Marshall Plan type of economic action to draw the world out of recession.

The Prime Minister

The discussions in Bonn, on which I made a statement to the House earlier today, centred on plans to improve the performance of the world economy, including the need for action in a number of related areas such as bringing to a successful conclusion the present negotiations to improve capital flows to developing countries and increasing multilateral and bilateral aid from the developed countries. The Government will continue to work for this.
