asked the Secretary of State for Employment when he next expects to meet European Economic Community Employment Ministers to discuss reducing unemployment.

Mr. Tom King

I shall have an opportunity to discuss employment matters of mutual concern at the informal meeting of Employment Ministers to be held in Dublin on 20–21 September.

27. Mr. O'Brien
