HC Deb 09 March 1964 vol 691 cc5-6W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

48, asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what action has been, or is to be, taken within the United Nations Organisation to secure the withdrawal of Egyptian forces from Yemen in accordance with the disengagement agreement.

Mr. R. A. Butler

On 4th November the Secretary-General appointed Signor Spinelli as his special representative "to play a more positive rôle in encouraging the implementation of the disengagement agreement" than the United Nations Yemen Observation Mission had been authorised to perform. Since then, Signor Spinelli has visited the area, but no report has yet been published on the results of his inquiries.
