HC Deb 22 March 1983 vol 39 cc385-6W
Mr. Arnold

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, pursuant to the answer of 14 March, whether at his meeting with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees the subject of the resettlement of the Vietnamese refugees in Hong Kong was discussed; what other subjects were discussed; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Rifkind

My right hon. Friend has not yet had an opportunity to meet the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. My right hon. Friend the Member for Mid-Oxon (Mr. Hurd) met Mr. Hartling when in Geneva on 10 March, but it was essentially a courtesy call and the subject of Vietnamese refugees was not discussed.
