HC Deb 05 May 1994 vol 242 c615W
Mr. Worthington

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether the withdrawal of United Nations Assistance Mission in Rwanda forces from Rwanda is planned to be a temporary measure; and if he will encourage the United Nations to draw up plans for a strengthened force and mandate to return at the earliest possible moment.

Mr. Goodlad

Security Council resolution 912 reduced the authorised size of UNAMIR, but stressed the Security Council's readiness to consider any recommendations which the Security General might make concerning the future force level and mandate of UNAMIR in light of developments.

We support the United Nations' efforts to promote a ceasefire and to encourage the parties to resume the peace process.
