HC Deb 22 March 1971 vol 814 c13W
55. Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how much the Beira blockade has cost since its inception; and if he will now order its termination.

Sir Alec Douglas-Home

Just over £2 million. We are exploring the possibilities of a just settlement in Rhodesia and meanwhile, as I have said before, sanctions including the Beira Patrol will be continued.
