Mr. Spearing
asked the Minister of Overseas Development if he has received any proposal, document or draft regulations concerning harmonisation of overseas aid policies of member States of the EEC; when they were received by Her Majesty's Government; and if any memorandum has been sent to the Scrutiny Committee.
Mr. Prentice
The Commission has put forward proposals on the harmonisation and co-ordination of development cooperation policies within the Community and these were received by Her Majesty's Government on 14th March 1975. They were subsequently deposited in Parliament, and an Explanatory Memorandum was provided to the Houses of Parliament and the Scrutiny Committees on 9th May 1975.
