HC Deb 18 March 1983 vol 39 c285W
Mr. Proctor

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will seek to arrange for the Minister with responsibility for sport to pay an official visit to the Republic of South Africa to review developments in sport in that country.

Mr. Macfarlane

No.

Mr. Proctor

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the documents and reports on South African sport by governing bodies in sport which he has considered recently; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Macfarlane

I have received none and, as my hon. Friend knows, the Government's policy towards sporting links with South Africa rests on the 1977 Commonwealth statement on apartheid in sport.
