HC Deb 24 March 1972 vol 833 c380W
Mr. Ronald Brown

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what instructions have been given to the United Kingdom representative at the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development in Santiago; and what initiatives are to be proposed to assist such countries as Mauritius to improve their trade and development capability.

Mr. Wood

The developing countries, including Mauritius, have made clear in the Lima Declaration the proposals which they would like to see U.N.C.T.A.D. III adopt. The main task at Santiago will be to find generally acceptable conclusions which arise from these proposals.
