Lord BROCKWAY

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will make available in the Library of the House the working documents amplifying the Anglo-American proposals for a Rhodesia settlement which he has circulated to the parties to the dispute.

Lord GORONWY-ROBERTS

I have today made arrangements for the working documents, which were circulated to the Patriotic Front, the United African National Council, the African National Council (Sithole) and the Rhodesian Front at the beginning of February this year, to be placed in the Library of the House. In keeping with the policy of greater disclosure of Departmental documents Her Majesty's Government have also taken steps to make them publicly available. The documents are:

  1. (a) the Transitional Period
  2. (b) the Independence Constitution
  3. (c) the Constitution of Zimbabwe and
  4. (d) Concept for a United Nations Zimbabwe Force.

Paper (b) was in effect an introduction to paper (c).

House adjourned at eighteen minutes before midnight.
