§ 17. Mr. Kinnockasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what provision he has made for Dr. Sheila Cassidy to make a personal submission to the UN Human Rights Commission following his public statement of 30th December 1975 on the torture of Dr. Cassidy whilst in custody in Chile.
§ Mr. RowlandsThe United Kingdom Permanent Representative to the United Nations in Geneva has delivered Dr. Sheila Cassidy's own written testimony to the Human Rights Commission's ad hoc Working Group on Chile. Dr. Cassidy gave oral evidence to the Group on 19th January.
§ Sir Bernard Braineasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what reply he has made to the Chilean response to his protest about the torture of Dr. Sheila Cassidy in view of the fact that the Chilean reply is clearly no answer to the comprehensive and convincing account she has given.
§ Mr. RowlandsWe have informed the Chilean Ambassador that the replies which the Chilean Government have given to my right hon. Friend's request for an inquiry into the behaviour of the security police on the night of 1st November are unconvincing and unsatisfactory.
