HC Deb 26 June 1979 vol 969 c154W
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

Although telephone and telex 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.
