HC Deb 19 July 1976 vol 915 c343W
Mr. David Hunt

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will raise with the Ethiopian Government the question of safety and early release of the Tyler family held captive in Ethiopia.

Mr. Rowlands

As soon as we knew that Dr. Tyler and his family had been taken captive, we made urgent contact with the Ethiopian Government and asked them to do all they could to secure the safe release of the family. We continue to try to secure their release by all possible means.
