§ Mr. ThurnhamTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what action he is taking to secure the release of a British citizen held by rebel forces in Angola; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydWe have raised the case of the three British citizens held by UNITA in Angola with UNITA representatives in London on 22 and 28 January, and with the UNITA delegation attending the UNITA/ Government talks in Addis Ababa. Our embassy in Luanda is working closely with FINA Oil and Weatherford Services, the men's employers, in order to obtain their release.
