HC Deb 19 October 1988 vol 138 c963W
58. Mr. Colvin

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with Spanish authorities and the new Chief Minister of Gibraltar on the implementation of the Gibraltar airport agreement with Spain.

Mrs. Chalker

My right hon. and learned Friend has made clear, both to the Spanish authorities and to the Chief Minister, that we believe that the agreement is very much in Gibraltar's interest; that we hope that the Gibraltar House of Assembly will take steps to implement it; but that we will not attempt to impose it on the people of Gibraltar.
