§ Mr. Leeasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is the total number of persons currently detained without trial by the illegal regime in Rhodesia; and if he will make a statement on the compensation for the wrongfully detained.
§ Mr. RowlandsMy right hon. Friend cannot give a number of the persons currently detained in Rhodesia, as the regime has never released such information.
The question of compensation does not arise, as we do not accept responsibility for the actions of the regime.
