HC Deb 19 November 1981 vol 13 c203W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether any Foreign and Commonwealth Office Minister plans to visit Namibia within the next 12 months and if he will make a statement on the United Kingdom relationship with the internal Government of the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance.

Mr. Luce

There are no plans at present for a Foreign and Commonwealth Office Minister to visit Namibia. With our partners in the Five we maintain contact with leaders of the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance and the other internal parties, but the Five do not recognise the "Council of Ministers" as a Government.
