Prime minister Heath touted the Luxembourg terms as a major first year win despite strong opposition over price and sovereignty fears.

Parliament plans a white paper next month and seeks ratification by fall for a January 1, 1973 entry.

Senate Amends Policy on Prisoner Release Timing
The amendment sets a nine month patrout date from enactment and ties action to prisoner release only, excluding broader South Vietnamese defense requirements. The Senate musters a two thirds majority for future cloture, surprising many as eleven Southern Democrats and most Republicans vote to cut off debate. Presidential prospects split with Muskie Humphrey and Jackson backing cloture while McGovern Hughes Bayh oppose. The rule limits each senator to one hour of debate on the rest of the bill, with unlimited debate resuming after conference report.
