§ Mr. David NicholsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what measures he is taking to persuade other countries to accept more Vietnamese refugees who are at present in Hong Kong.
§ Mr. EggarFollowing our decision in May 1987 to resettle in this country a further 468 Vietnamese refugees from Hong Kong, we have taken every opportunity to urge other Governments to follow our example by expanding their resettlement programmes. We are continuing to press the case for increased resettlement from Hong Kong, in our bilateral contacts, in the appropriate multilateral fora and through UNHCR.
