HC Deb 23 July 1984 vol 64 c449W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what action he has taken in the past seven months to maintain pressure to withdraw Argentine official observers or supervisors put to oversee British firms in Argentina during the Falklands conflict; and what response he has had from the Argentine Government in this matter.

Mr. Ian Stewart

I have nothing to add to my earlier reply on 23 January at column374.

Mr. Dalyell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what guidelines he has issued to British banks in relation to the re-scheduling of Argentine debt.

Mr. Ian Stewart

The Government have kept in touch with the British banks involved, but the banks are responsible for their own commercial decisions in relation to the re-scheduling of Argentine debt.

Mr. Dalyell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer from what sources officials in his Department have access to works published in Argentina.

Mr. Ian Stewart

Officials in Her Majesty's Treasury obtain access to works published in Argentina principally from the British interests section in the Swiss embassy in Buenos Aires and from international financial organisations on which Britain is represented. The importation of books from Argentina is also now permitted, provided they are not for resale.
