HC Deb 08 April 1963 vol 675 c102W
75. Mr. Brockway

asked the Lord Privy Seal how far Her Majesty's Government accept tile draft declaration on racial discrimination adopted by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights; and if he will place in the Library of the House of Commons a record of the proceedings of the Commission showing how the British delegate voted on the clauses of and the amendments proposed to the declaration.

Mr. P. Thomas

The text of the draft declaration on racial discrimination adopted by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights on 2nd April is now under consideration. It is not possible at this stage to say how far it is acceptable to Her Majesty's Government.

The record of the proceedings of the Commission is not yet available but a copy will be placed in the Library of the House in due course. I understand that this will not, however, indicate the way in which particular delegates voted.
