HC Deb 18 April 1989 vol 151 c96W
Q195. Mr. Hunter

To ask the Prime Minister what is her assessment of the prospects of a peaceful solution to the political problems of Namibia.

We welcome the agreement on the return of SWAPO forces to positions north of the 16th parallel in Angola. It is essential that this is put into effect and that henceforth all sides abide by their undertakings in the United Nations plan.
