HC Deb 13 June 2003 vol 406 c243W
Mr. Laurence Robertson

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with the Ethio-Eritrea Border Commission about the drawing of the border near Badme; and if he will make a statement. [116136]

Mr. Rammell

None. The Boundary Commission is an independent judicial body. It made its decision on the position of the border between Ethiopia and Eritrea in April 2002. We have called on both Ethiopia and Eritrea to implement fully the Algiers Peace Agreements and to accept the Boundary Commissions decisions as final and binding.
