§ Q29. Mr. Greenwayasked the Prime Minister if she will make a statement on the situation in Poland.
§ The Prime MinisterHer Majesty's Government and their allies have continued to urge the Polish authorities to lift martial law, release all those detained and restore a genuine dialogue with the Church and Solidarity. Regrettably there has been little progress towards these three objectives. For the present therefore, our measures towards Poland must remain in force. We are continuing to make our views clear to the Polish Government whenever appropriate opportunities arise.
