HC Deb 08 December 1966 vol 737 cc367-8W
Q14. Mr. Wall

asked the Prime Minister what communications he has received from Commonwealth Governments and from the Secretary General of the United Nations about recent developments concerning Rhodesia.

The Prime Minister

We remain in the closest touch with Commonwealth Governments and I have personally been in communication with all Commonwealth Prime Ministers. My right hon. Friend the Foreign Secretary will be consulting with our Commonwealth colleagues in New York about implementing the undertakings spelt out in the communiqué of the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Meeting.

Sir C. Osborne

asked the Prime Minister, despite the disappointment caused by his statement on Rhodesia, if he will still keep open all avenues to a peaceful settlement even though the question has been taken to the United Nations.

The Prime Minister

I have as yet nothing to add to the Statement I made to the House on 5th December.—[Vol 737, c. 1053.]
