HL Deb 14 March 1991 vol 527 c9WA
Lord Hylton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will seek the appointment of a new United Nations mediator or special rapporteur for the Middle East.

The Earl of Caithness:

We understand that the United Nations Secretary-General intends shortly to appoint a new special representative for the Middle East. We support this idea which we hope will help advance the search for peace.
