HC Deb 27 January 1987 vol 109 cc176-7W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs for what reasons Her Majesty's Government opposed the extension of the EEC sanctions package to Namibia.

Mr. Eggar

We joined other European partners in excluding Namibia from the measures taken against South Africa because we do not believe that to apply such measures to Namibia would advance the common objective of Namibian independence.
