68. Mr. Home Robertson

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with other Governments in order to resolve the problem of Vietnamese refugees in Hong Kong.

Mr. Eggar

We are in regular contact with other resettlement countries, countries of first asylum, the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, and Vietnam on all aspects of this problem. We have recently undertaken to resettle an additional 1,000 Vietnamese refugees in Britain, and have secured increased commitments from other countries at the same time.
