HL Deb 09 June 1981 vol 421 cc212-3WA
Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, in writing to correspondents about the dissolution of the Eritrean Parliament, the Foreign Secretary and other Ministers will make it clear that the vote was conducted under the muzzles of Ethiopian guns.

Lord Carrington

I am aware of the circumstances in which the Eritrean Parliament was dissolved and, when necessary, this will be reflected in correspondence.
