HC Deb 26 January 1999 vol 324 c214W
Dr. Marek

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will seek to amend annexe II of the 1976 legislative measure of the EEC on Direct Elections to extend the franchise to the people of Gibraltar for elections to the European Parliament. [67396]

Ms Quin

We have no plans to seek to amend annexe II of the 1976 EC Act. Amendment would require the agreement of all Member States. In present circumstances there is no prospect of securing this.
