HC Deb 15 March 1985 vol 75 c292W
Mr. John Mark Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement concerning proposed frontier relaxations between France, West Germany and the Benelux countries.

Mr. Luce

The Governments of France, Germany and the Benelux countries are discussing the possibility of progressively relaxing controls at the land frontiers between them, on the lines of the agreement reached last year between France and Germany. We welcome this development. Separate discussions are taking place about making travel easier throughout the Community as a whole.
