Container Summary

Correspondence between John M. Taylor, European Parliament, and Fr. Patrick O'Mahony. Includes typed carbons from Fr. O'Mahony. Reference to investigation by Fr. O'Mahony into ethical practices of multinational companies and subsidiaries, undertaken on behalf of the Archdiocese of Birmingham, a shareholder in many of the companies. Note: Typed carbon letter from Fr. O'Mahony to Taylor (1/10/1908): "...In reality the present study applies not only to South Africa but to all sensitive areas where the Archdiocese has shares. What I am seeking is information about the implementation of the E.E.C. (European Economic Committee) Code of Conduct for Member States where investment in South Africa is concerned. I wish to know how many Member States are, in fact, failing to meet the requirements of the Code of Conduct..."
