§ Q9. Mr. Ormeasked the Prime Minister if he will give an assurance that arms supplies from this country to Iraq will be stopped while they are being used against the Kurdish minority in that country.
§ The Prime MinisterNo.
Her Majesty's Government regret the resumption of fighting in Kurdistan, as any other instability in the Middle East. But we regard the Kurdish question as an internal Iraqi matter in which it would be inappropriate for us to interfere.
