London keeps euro adoption under review, Brown says

Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Monday that Britain kept the question of adopting the euro under regular review. "The issue of Britain's membership of the euro is something that we periodically review," Brown said at a news conference with Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany. "We did not join in the first round," he said. "That is a matter we keep under review."

Brown also said it was important for the world economy that European growth continue.
