HC Deb 12 June 1972 vol 838 cc186-7W
29 and 54. Mr. Rose

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs. (1) whether he will seek to initiate an aviation boycott of all countries knowingly harbouring organisations involved in hi-jacking aeroplanes and attacking passengers at airports;

(2) whether he will seek to initiate a boycott of airports in the Lebanon and Egypt.

Mr. Godber
