HC Deb 24 July 1972 vol 841 c206W
56. Mr. Soref

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will give details of the approaches made by the Federal Republic of West Germany to Her Majesty's Government concerning the presence of the multi-racial Rhodesian team at the forthcoming Olympic Games.

Sir Alec Douglas-Home

Last autumn the Government of the Federal German Republic sought our views on Rhodesian participation in the Olympic Games. In response to that and to their other subsequent inquiries we have drawn their attention to the possible applicability of Security Council Resolutions, in particular Resolution 253, to this question.
