§ 82. Mr. Hooleyasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will, in concert with other interested countries, initiate discussions with the authorities in Cyprus for the progressive assimiliation of Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot personnel into the United Nations Peacekeeping Force, without impairing the international character of that force.
