HC Deb 10 July 1980 vol 988 c260W
Mrs. Knight

asked the Prime Minister on what grounds permission was given for a memorial to the "victims of Yalta" to be erected on Crown land; and if she will make a statement.

The Prime Minister

The purpose of the memorial is to commemorate those who died. The Government agreed to the memorial being erected on Crown land on condition that this purpose was strictly observed. The planned inscription does so. It passes no judgment either on the policies of Governments in the relevant period or on the actions of those who made and carried out those policies.
