§ Mr. Nicholas WintertonTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if, during the recent visit to Zimbabwe by the Minister of State, there was any discussion about the human rights implications of the decision of the Chief Justice of Zimbabwe to reduce from 25 to 12 years the sentence passed upon Odile Harrington; and if he will make a statement.
