To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many British consular offices there are in each Latin American country; if he will list their locations; and what was the number of such offices in 1987.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

In Latin America there are currently 41 British consular offices, including honorary consular offices. A list follows. In 1987 there were 33 such offices. The increase in the number of consular offices is the result of the extension of the honorary network. Honorary consuls provide assistance and advice to British national at minimal cost.
