HC Deb 25 June 1990 vol 175 cc15-6W
Mr. Hardy

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what effect the United Kingdom's present relationship with northern Cyprus has had on extradition and the effective pursuit of crime.

Mr. Maude

Our policy of non-recognition of the so-called "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" does not preclude operational contacts between British police forces and the Turkish Cypriot police. These are working effectively. The question of extradition has not arisen.
