HC Deb 21 July 1981 vol 9 c78W
Mr. Stuart Holland

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether he has formally raised the case of Ida Nudel, a prisoner of conscience, interned in exile in Siberia, with the Soviet authorities; and whether he intends to raise her case with the Soviet Union's ambassador.

Sir Ian Gilmour

My right hon. and noble Friend recently reminded the Soviet Foreign Minister of the importance the Government attach to human rights and of the strong feeling in the United Kingdom on this subject, including the question of Soviet Jews.
