HC Deb 07 May 1986 vol 97 c185W
60. Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will seek to put the matter of kidnap insurance on the agenda of the next meeting of the Foreign Affairs Council.

Mrs. Chalker

The question of kidnap insurance is a matter for my right hon. Friend the Home Secretary. Ministers of the Interior and of Justice of the Twelve agreed in The Hague on 24 April that the possibility of measures against kidnap ransom payments should be studied urgently by officials.
