HC Deb 18 March 1982 vol 20 cc185-6W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment, pursuant to his reply to the hon. Member for Northampton, North, Official Report, 12 March, column 520, why he will not seek, in the terms of the Gleneagles agreement, to discourage contact or competition between British and Israeli sportsmen.

Mr. MacFarlane

The terms of the Gleneagles agreement are designed to combat apartheid. This condition does not apply in Israel, therefore I will not discourage contact or competition between British and Israeli sportsmen.
