HC Deb 12 January 1981 vol 996 c417W
Mr. Cryer

asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will make a statement on the latest position regarding the circumstances arising out of the death in Jedda of Helen Smith.

Mr. Hurd

On 24 November 1980 the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs forwarded to our embassy in Jedda copies of its medical and police reports on Helen Smith, together with a local death certificate. After translation these were sent on 16 December to Miss Smith's father. Copies were also sent to the Leeds deputy coroner.
