HC Deb 11 May 1982 vol 23 c222W
Q23. Mr. Foulkes

asked the Prime Minister if she will make a statement on the current situation in South Georgia.

The Prime Minister

As I reported to the House on 26 April, British authority was re-established in South Georgia on 25 April. The Argentine troops and civilians captured there have now been taken off the island, as have the British Antarctic survey personnel and the two wild-life photographers. A British presence remains on the islands.
