HC Deb 27 January 1976 vol 904 c187W
Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will initiate a conference between all the parties concerned including the Governments of Greece and Turkey to try and secure a solution to the refugee problems in Cyprus.

Mr. Hattersley

No. A solution to the refugee problem is most likely to be found in the context of a general political settlement. I remain ready to do what I can to help. But I continue to believe that the intercommunal talks provide the best starting point for achievinig a settlement. I welcome reports that these talks are to resume shortly.
