HC Deb 17 March 1993 vol 221 c257W
Sir John Hunt

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make it his policy to publish evidence of any breach of the embargo imposed against Serbia and Montenegro.

Mr. Goodlad

It would not be proper for us to publish any allegations of sanctions breaches in advance of any prosecution that may take place and indeed to do so may prejudice the chances of a successful prosecution.

The United Nations sanctions committee investigates allegations of sanctions breaches and brings them to the attention of those responsible. It is not, however, the practice of the committee to publish its discussions.
