18. Sir William van Straubenzee

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he has yet received the full report of the British Government's observers on recent elections held in El Salvador.

36. Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the election in El Salvador.

Mr. Onslow

It shows an exceptionally high proportion of the eligible electorate voted, demonstrating that the Salvadoran people wish to see their future decided democratically. the report concluded that the results reflected the sentiments of the Salvadoran people and that the conduct of the election was fair.
