HC Deb 21 March 1979 vol 964 c597W
37. Mr. William Shelton

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Common wealth Affairs if he will raise with the United Nations the denial of human rights in Ethiopia.

Mr. Rowlands

Our deep concern for the violation of human rights in Ethiopia has been expressed on many occasions. The question of human rights violations in Ethiopia is currently before the United Nations Human Rights Commission and has been considered under a confidential procedure during the present session of the Commission.
