HC Deb 07 February 1991 vol 185 c237W
Mr. MacLennan

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when the Dublin convention determining the state of responsibility for examining applications for asylum lodged in one of the member states of the European Community will be ratified in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

The United Kingdom intends to ratify the convention when all 12 member states have signed it. Denmark alone has yet to do so.
