§ Mr. MealeTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs (1) if he will request the United Nations Secretary-General to instigate an inquiry into the recent allegations made by the former United States ambassador to Turkey, Mr. Crawford, that Turkish Government officials knew of the whereabouts of a number of persons detained against their will who subsequently disappeared following the invasion of Cyprus by Turkish forces in 1974;
(2) if he will now consider suggesting an inquiry to be executed by the European Union's competent agencies into the fate of the Greek Cypriots missing since 1974;
(3) if he will request the Turkish Government to respond to the allegations made by the former United States ambassador to Turkey, Mr. Crawford, that the Turkish authorities had in their custody a number of persons subsequently classified as missing following the invasion of Cyrpus by Turkey in 1974;
(4) if he will request the present Turkish ambassador to the United Nations to give details of his personal knowledge of the whereabouts of the Greek Cypriots classified as missing persons since the invasion of Cyprus by Turkish forces in 1974;
(5) if he will investigate the recent claims of the former United States ambassador to Turkey, Mr. Crawford, that persons classified as missing since the 1974 invasion of Cyprus by Turkish troops, were alive and in Turkish custody.
§ Mr. Heathcoat-AmoryMr. Crawford was United States ambassador to Cyprus from 1974 to 1978. His remarks do not seem to constitute recent evidence about the fate of missing persons. We consider that the United Nations Committee on Missing Persons remains the best instrument for pursuing the question of those missing from both communities. The committee's effectiveness depends on full co-operation from both sides.
§ Mr. MealeTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he raised the question of the missing Greek Cypriots during his recent visit to Turkey.
