HC Deb 18 October 1990 vol 177 c905W
Mr. Mullin

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what contact there was between his Department and Messrs. Anthony de Normann and Christopher Edward Mackenzie Giedt(a) before and (b) after their recent visit to Cambodia.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

At his request, Mr. Mackenzie Geidt was briefed by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office on the situation in Cambodia before he and Mr. de Normann visited Indochina in 1989 at the invitation of the Institute for International Relations in Hanoi and the present regime in Phnom Penh. There was no subsequent contact between this Department and the two men on their visit. Within the last few days, there have been exchanges with officials in this Department about allegations against the two men in the media.
