23. Mr. Skinner

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what recent meetings he has had with his EEC counterparts; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

I attended meetings with the Italian Minister of the Interior in August 1978, and the Minister of the Interior of the Federal Republic of Germany in September 1978. My ministerial colleagues in the Department attended meetings of EEC Ministers of Justice in October 1978, of EEC Ministers responsible for internal security in November 1978; and the Social Affairs Council meeting on illegal migration and illegal employment, also in November 1978.
