HC Deb 13 November 1980 vol 992 c303W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether he will seek to make Spanish and Portuguese entry into the EEC dependent on a satisfactorily reorganisation of the Community's budgetary arrangements.

Sir Ian Gilmour

The Government's support for the Spanish and Portuguese applications for membership remains firm and so does our determination to secure a satisfactory outcome for next year's budget review.
