§ Mr. WellsTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what ways and means are being employed by Her Majesty's Government to keep the 413W situtation at the United Nations Educational, Science and Cultural Organisation under review over the next 12 months; what are the terms of reference for the United Kingdom's observer at the United Nations Educational, Science and Cultural Organisation; and if he will make it his policy to report to the House, on a regular basis, the results of this monitoring and the progress made by the United Nations Educational, Science and Cultural Organisation, leading to the further consideration in 1991 of a return by the United Kingdom to membership of the United Nations Educational, Science and Cultural Organisation.
§ Mr. SainsburyThe British observer delegation to UNESCO at the British embassy in Paris closely monitors developments at UNESCO. The observer delegation also serves as a channel of communication for those activities of UNESCO in which we still participate. We keep our policy to UNESCO constantly under review in the light of any progress towards reform but do not believe that a specific timetable would be appropriate.
