HC Deb 18 October 1990 vol 177 c923W
Mr. Mullin

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

Mr. Archie Hamilton

The visit of Messrs. de Normann and Mackenzie Geidt to Indochina was at the invitation of the Hanoi Institute for International Relations and the current Phnom Penh regime. The only contact with the Military of Defence in relation to the visit that has been traced was a routine inquiry by Mr. de Normann prior to departure to check on the regulations governing visits by ex-service personnel to communist countries. Within the last few days, there have been exchanges with officials in the Ministry of Defence about allegations made in the media against the two men.
