HC Deb 15 May 1981 vol 4 cc351-2W
Mr. Michael Brown

asked the Lord Privy Seal how many British embassies and posts abroad have provided briefings to interested individuals and organisations on the hunger strike at the Maze prison in Northern Ireland since 1 March.

Mr. Blaker

The information requested could only be provided at disproportionate cost. Many of our posts abroad are providing such briefings and disseminating information every day.

Mr. Michael Brown

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether he has received representations from individuals and organisations criticising the activities of British embassies and posts abroad in combating the propaganda disseminated by the Irish Republican Army and its supporters.

Mr. Blaker

No.
