HC Deb 13 June 1990 vol 174 c207W
Mr. Cohen

To ask the Prime Minister if she will make a statement about the death of Mr. Jonathan Moyle in Chile; whether any official of Her Majesty's Government has made a statement as to cause and nature of his death; and what representations Her Majesty's Government have received from Mr. Moyle's family.

The Prime Minister

The tragic death of Mr. Jonathan Moyle is under investigation by the Chilean authorities. Her Majesty's coroner for Exeter and East Devon has also opened an inquest. It would not therefore be appropriate for me to make a statement at this time. No official statement has been made by any Government Department or agency in London or by the British embassy in Santiago as to the cause of. Moyle's death. Consular officials in London are in regular contact with Mr. Moyle's family.
