§ Mr. Townsendasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is his policy towards the proposal that the Republic of Cyprus should call for a United Nations mandate over the whole of Cyprus for a defined period to enable the Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots to reach a reasonable and lasting settlement of the Cyprus dispute.
§ Mr. JuddThe proposal has not so far been taken up by any party to the Cyprus dispute. The Government would not propose to advocate such an idea in the absence of any indication that the parties themselves support it.
