§ Sir Teddy TaylorTo ask the Prime Minister if he will raise at the next meeting of the European Council the volume of legislation being proposed by the Commission.
§ The Prime MinisterWe are still discussing the agenda for the Corfu European Council with our European Union 289W partners. We will bear my hon. Friends suggestion in mind. We welcome the continued downward trend in the number of proposals for principal legislation brought forward annually by the Commission, a trend which owes much to the efforts of the Government.
