To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when the President of Georgia will visit the UK. [121802]

Mr. Vaz

[holding answer 15 May 2000]: We are looking forward to an early visit by President Shevardnadze. When the Secretary of State visited Georgia in February he invited President Shevardnadze to visit the UK. We have now offered dates to the Georgian Government and are awaiting their response.
