HC Deb 05 February 1986 vol 91 c181W
87. Sir Anthony Meyer

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on recent progress towards closer co-operation in foreign policy in the European Community.

Mrs. Chalker

Treaty provisions on co-operation in the sphere of Foreign Policy based on a United Kingdom initiative were agreed at the inter-governmental conference, as my right hon. and learned Friend reported to the House on 18 December. I refer the hon. Member to the evidence which my right hon. and learned Friend gave on this subject to the House of Commons Select Committee on Foreign Affairs on 11 December. I understand that the Select Committee has placed an uncorrected transcript of the evidence in the Library of the House and that it will be published in due course.
