§ 20. Mr. Gorstasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a further statement with regard to the situation of Mrs. Gladys Yang, who is under investigation by the Chinese Government and thought to be held in detention.
§ Mr. Anthony RoyleAs I told the House on 2nd August, Mrs. Yang's detention has been raised with the Chinese Government on many occasions. Our charge d'affaires in Peking was informed in April that Mrs. Yang was in good health but that her case was still under investigation. He was told on 17th November that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would let us know as soon as there was any further information on her case. We shall continue to do all we can to secure her release.—[Vol. 822, c. 1082.]
