§ Lord Moynihanasked Her Majesty's Government:
What is their response to the United States proposals to consider activating Title III and fully enforcing Title IV of the Helms-Burton Act 1996; and what would be the ramifications of activating Title III for British business interests in Cuba. [HL3137]
§ Baroness Symons of Vernham DeanThe Government do not believe that the United States intends to change its existing policy whereby a waiver on Title III is renewed every six months.
Title IV is invoked occasionally but the Government have received no indication that the United States intends to do so again in the near future.
