HC Deb 11 December 1972 vol 848 c5W
42. Mr. Clinton Davis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if the Government will take action at the United Nations Commission on Human Rights concerning the persecution of political opponents of the Turkish régime.

Mr. Anthony Royle

As I told the House earlier today in answer to a Question by the hon. Member for West Lothian (Mr. Dalyell) we have no evidence that there is a consistent pattern of violations of human rights which would justify action in the United Nations.
