Part of Oral Answers to Questions — European Community – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 21 January 1976.

Alert me about debates like this

Mr. Ross:

The House has already debated this subject for four days and the matter mentioned by my hon. Friend was well aired. We said that we would further consider whether to use the courts. I was impressed by the fact that one newspaper, printed in Manchester, advocated getting rid of the Secretary of State altogether—with a certain measure of approval from the Liberal Benches. I assure the House that that report was rather exaggerated.
