HL Deb 29 October 1981 vol 424 c1189WA
Lord Molloy

asked Her Majesty's Government:

To what extent it is anticipated that British forces may be involved as part of the peace-keeping force scheduled to be deployed in Sinai when the occupying forces withdraw next April.

Lord Carrington

Along with a number of other Western countries, Her Majesty's Government have received a request from the United States Government to contribute to a peace-keeping force in the Sinai. We have been discussing this request with our European partners in the light of the European commitment to Venice, and a statement will be issued once a final decision has been made.
