HC Deb 30 April 1990 vol 171 c402W
Mr. Battle

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when he last raised with the Turkish Government issues of human rights abuses in that country.

Mr. Maude

We regularly raise the issue of human rights in Turkey with the Turkish Government. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs raised the matter when he saw the deputy Prime Minister on 22 January. Most recently my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister raised the question with President Ozal on 25 April.
