HC Deb 30 November 1983 vol 49 c539W
Mr. Dubs

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs to which countries Her Majesty's Government have made representations during the last year about breaches of human rights.

Mr. Whitney

We have made representations about breaches of human rights to many countries during the last year and will continue to do so. It is often most effective to express such concerns privately. Any list we could publish would therefore given an incomplete and misleading picture.
