Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what consultations he has had with the Bonn Government about a European Economic Community policy towards the law of the sea treaty.

We have frequent discussions with the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany, as with those of other Member States of the EC, on many aspects, including Community aspects, of the law of the sea as well as the UN Law of the Sea Convention. These consultations are confidential.
