Danes to vote on E.E.C. reforms

NZPA-Reuter Copenhagen

The Danish Parliament voted yesterday in favour of holding a referendum on controversial European Economic Community reforms.

The Parliament passed, by 82 votes to 0 with 66 abstentions, a resolution

urging the Government to legislate for a consultative referendum on reforms to the Community’s founding treaty. The four Government parties, backed by the small Opposition Radical and Left Socialist parties, voted for the resolution.

The main Opposition Social Democrats, plus the small Socialist People’s Party, and three members of the Radical Party abstained. The Foreign Minister, ' Mr Uffe Ellemann-Jensen, earlier named February 27 as a likely date for the

referendum. In the Parliamentary debate the Prime Minister, Mr. Paul Schlueter, said his Government would call for a referendum to stop what he called a game of “Russian roulette” with Danish society.
