HC Deb 12 January 1987 vol 108 c3W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Prime Minister if she will publish the signals which showed that the Libyan Government were behind the Berlin night club terrorist bombing.

The Prime Minister

Because of its nature and source, we cannot agree to make public our evidence of Libyan involvement.

Mr. Dobson

asked the Prime Minister if Her Majesty's Government had any knowledge, at the time of the United States bombing of Libya, of Syrian involvement in the Berlin night club terrorist bombing.

The Prime Minister

We know of no evidence of Syrian involvement in the bombing of La Belle discotheque in Berlin on 5 April 1986.

Mr. Dobson

asked the Prime Minister what steps Her Majesty's Government have taken since the United States bombing of Libya to find out from the West German or United States Governments evidence of Libyan or Syrian involvement in the Berlin night club terrorist bombing.

The Prime Minister

We have kept closely in touch with other Governments on this matter. There is clear evidence of Libyan involvement in the bombing of La Belle discotheque; as far as we are aware, there is none of Syrian involvement.
