§ Mr. Foulkesasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will specify the date on which an officer from E1 Salvador is due to commence language and military training in the United Kingdom; what is the name and rank of the soldier concerned; and if he will place in the Library a biography of the officer and a synopsis of his history in the E1 Salvadorean armed services.
§ Mr. EggarThe position remains as in my reply of 19 May to the hon. Member. It is not our policy to give specific details of individuals attending military training courses in the United Kingdom. Our offer to E1 Salvador is consistent with training provided by Contadora group countries, whose efforts to promote a peaceful settlement in Central America we actively support.
