HC Deb 20 July 1977 vol 935 c596W
Mr. Donald Stewart

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is the state of current British relations with the Sultanate of Oman; and what economic or other assistance is being provided by Her Majesty's Government to Oman.

Mr. Judd

We enjoy good relations with the Sultanate of Oman. We continue to assist in the development of the country in a variety of practical ways, principally through a modest pogramme of technical assistance; we also provide seconded personnel to the armed forces. We and the Omani Government attach particular importance to training Omanis to take over those tasks currently being carried out by expatriates.
