HC Deb 18 February 1985 vol 73 c403W
Mr. John David Taylor

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much money was required from each of the 10 member countries of the European Economic Community arising from the intergovernmental agreement to top up the EEC budget for 1984; which of the 10 countries have completed these payments; whether a similar intergovernmental agreement is expected for 1985; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Lawson

The contributions of each member state are set out in Cmnd. 9395, Treaty Series No. 80(1984). All member states have now paid their agreed contributions. Council discussions are continuing about the best way of financing Community expenditure in 1985.
