HC Deb 12 May 1965 vol 712 c91W
Mr. Blaker

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what authorities Her Majesty's Government recognise as the Government of the Dominican Republic.

Mr. M. Stewart

I have received communications from both of the self-proclaimed Governments in the Dominican Republic. The Government previously recognised by Her Majesty's Government disintegrated and neither of the present claimants meets our usual criteria for recognition at this time.
