§ Mr. Menzies CampbellTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) whether the Argentine yacht which breached the Falkland Islands security cordon on 29 or 30 January obtained clearance to do so from the British security forces;
(2) whether he will order an investigation into the alleged breaching of the Falkland Islands exclusion zone by an Argentine yacht on 29 or 30 January.
§ Mr. NeubertAn Argentine yacht entered Port Stanley harbour on 27 January with a damaged rudder. Following repairs, it was escorted out and sent on its way the next day. It did not obtain the permission of the British Government to be in the area. Security measures in the Falklands are kept under review, and this episode will be taken into account in that process.
