§ Mr. Nicholas Wintertonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs (1) what is his policy towards moves by the internal Namibian political parties of the multi-party conference to represent the views of Namibians in the United Nations General Assembly on the same basis as the South West Africa People's Organisation; and if he will make a statement;
(2) what is Her Majesty's Government's policy on South West Africa People's Organisation representatives being allowed to address the United Nations General Assembly.
§ Mr. RentonWe have always been prepared to support requests from the representatives of political parties in Namibia to have their views heard in United Nations fora. However, we consider that only free and fair elections, as provided for in the United Nations plan, will determine who has the right to represent the views of the Namibian people in the United Nations General Assembly, as elsewhere.
