HC Deb 19 November 1981 vol 13 c192W
Mr. J. Enoch Powell

asked the Prime Minister whether Her Majesty's Government's position is the same on Carlingford Lough as on Lough Foyle; and what communication on the subject has been had with the Government of the Republic of Ireland.

The Prime Minister

The history of Lough Carlingford is not the same as that of Lough Foyle and Her Majesty's Government must take account of this. The possibility of an agreed delimitation was raised by officials in the context of the Anglo-Irish joint studies.
