HC Deb 23 January 1986 vol 90 c246W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on what grounds his Department has opposed the re-naming of the avenue in Washington containing the British embassy in honour of Nelson and Winnie Mandela.

Mrs. Chalker

We are aware of this idea; it is entirely a matter for the relevant United States authorities. We have not objected and will not do so.
