On the occasion of the Conference of Heads of Government and Party Leaders of the European People’s Party (EPP), held in Brussels on 13 April 1991, the EPP announces that it is prepared to admit the people’s parties of the Scandinavian and Central European countries to its organisation and welcomes the contacts which have brought the British Conservatives closer to the policies of the EPP, with a view to forming a ‘Community of Groups’ in the European Parliament.
