HC Deb 06 April 1989 vol 150 cc269-70W
Q22. Mr. Dalyell

To ask the Prime Minister what response she sent to the invitation from the Dutch Government to participate in the environmental conference at The Hague during the week beginning 6 March.

Mr. Wakeham

I have been asked to reply.

My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister told the Prime Minister of the Netherlands that Her Majesty's Government would not be represented at the meeting in The Hague. As my right hon. Friend told the hon. Member for Cardiff, West (Mr. Morgan) on 23 February, we had a number of reservations about the proposed declaration.
