HC Deb 12 March 1981 vol 1000 c1010
Mr. Speaker

I have two brief statements to make. I took it upon myself to send a message to the Speaker of the Greek Parliament expressing sympathy with the people of Greece for the severe earth tremors from which they have suffered for 16 days. I received the following message today: Mr. Speaker, On behalf of the Members of the Greek Parliament and myself personally I wish to express to you as well as to the Members of the House of Commons our grateful thanks for your sympathy and compassion addressed to us on the occasion of the terrible earthquakes that have shaken our country. Dimitrios Papaspyrou, President Greek Parliament.
