HC Deb 31 October 1983 vol 47 c282W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what representations he received from the Standing Conference of National and University Libraries about the possible destruction and burning of books dispatched from Buenos Aires.

Mr. Brooke

My right hon. Friend received in July a letter from the standing conference of national and university libraries about the importation of books from Argentina. The letter did not refer to the destruction or burning of books, which was never a possibility.
