HC Deb 28 October 1988 vol 139 c451W
Mr. Amess

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if it remains the policy of Her Majesty's Government to refuse to recognise the Palestine Liberation Organisation so long as it retains its intent to destroy the state of Israel; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Waldegrave

We recognise only states: the question of recognition of the PLO does not arise.
