Mr. Ron Brown (Leith)asked the Prime Minister whether, pursuant to her reply of 28 April, Her Majesty's Government will press for the removal by South Korea of the reinforced concrete barrier which stretches for over 200km along the 38th parellel as a contribution to efforts to achieve the peaceful reunification of Korea.
§ The Prime MinisterNo. Concrete obstacles are in place both North and South of the Demilitarised Zone. Her Majesty's Government strongly support initiatives made by South Korea towards contacts between both sides leading to peaceful reunification and rendering such barriers unnecessary.
