HC Deb 12 December 1960 vol 632 c1W
54. Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether Her Majesty's Government will recommend the exclusion from the United Nations Organisation of States, whose governments practise or condone, chattel slavery.

Mr. Godber

No. In the opinion of Her Majesty's Government, the most effective way of combating slavery at the present time is to stimulate universal accession to both the Slavery Convention of 1926 and the 1956 Supplementary Slavery Convention and the carrying out by all States of the provisions of these Conventions.
