HC Deb 10 June 1982 vol 25 c152W
23. Sir John Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement about the Falkland Islands.

Mr. Onslow

The situation remains as described by my right hon. Friend in answering questions in the House yesterday.

Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will make a statement on the Government's policy with regard to the claiming of reparations against the Argentine Government for the damage caused by their unprovoked aggression; and whether such claims will include payments to the civilian population of the Falkland Islands for the vandalisation and desecration of their private and personal possessions by the Argentinian military forces.

Mr. Onslow

The Government will be giving careful consideration to the question of claiming reparations from Argentina after the complete repossession of the Falkland Islands.
