HC Deb 04 July 1979 vol 969 c591W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Lord Privy Seal what restrictions Spain now places on communications with Gibraltar; and what exchanges there have recently been between Her Majesty's Government and the Spanish Government about them.

Sir Ian Gilmour

, pursuant to his reply [Official Report, 25 June 1979], circulated the following further answer:

I have to make a correction. The text should have read as follows.

Although telephone links were resumed 18 months ago, I much regret that there has been no substantial change in the main border restrictions which impede movement of people and goods between Spain and Gibraltar. The Government have had no recent contact with the Spanish Government.
