HC Deb 24 July 1996 vol 282 cc324-5W
Mr. Dafis

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent representations he has made to the Government of Turkey concerning the civil rights of the Kurdish people. [38517]

Mr. David Davis

We have taken a number of opportunities in the last few weeks to express, at a senior level in Ankara, the depth of our on-going concern at Turkey's human rights performance. We will continue to urge the Turkish Government to act on their intention to develop religious, democratic and personal freedoms.
