QUEEN'S SPEECHES ON THE PROROGATION AND THE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT
1. I attach a self-explanatory commissioning letter from the Cabinet Office and copies of the corresponding speeches for last year. Recipients will notice that the Prorogation Speech deals with developments during the lifetime of the current Parliamentary session (i e since May 1992). The Opening Speech looks forward to the next session (i e to October 1994).
Policy Planning Staff, with help from PRU as necessary, will prepare and submit drafts through the Secretary of State.
2.
3.
I should be grateful for very brief contributions from Departments for the two speeches on separate sheets of paper. In line with previous years, only the most essential points should be covered. The FCO contribution should be less than
700 words per speech. Would Protocol Department please cover past and pending State Visits.
4.
Contributions should be sent to me, copied to PRU by close of play, Friday 23 July. Nil returns in writing are required.
