62. Mr. Milne

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the British policy in the Pacific area in the light of the results of the recent New Zealand and Australian general elections.

Mr. Anthony Royle

Our policy in the Pacific area has not changed following the elections in Australia and New Zealand. We shall continue to maintain our traditionally close relations with those countries and to foster stability and development in that area.
