HC Deb 19 February 1991 vol 186 c73W
Mr. Vaz

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many meetings he has had with representatives of the Asian community in Britain to discuss the Gulf war; and if he will list the organisations concerned.

Mrs. Rumbold

My right hon. Friend recently attended the annual banquet of the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan. A visit to the Glasgow central mosque, planned for 18 January, had to be postponed and rearranged for a date in May. However, I met representatives of the United Kingdom action committee on Islamic affairs on 23 January. Such meetings reflect continuing contacts at ministerial and official level.
