HL Deb 19 June 1995 vol 565 c1WA
Lord Belhaven and Stenton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, in view of the expressed words of the municipality of Krakow, Poland, that there should be a British Consulate in that city, they have any plans to instal one.

The Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Baroness Chalker of Wallasey)

There are no plans at present to open a British Consulate in Krakow.

Honorary Consulates have been opened recently in Gdansk, Poznan, and Katowice, and a fourth will open shortly in Wroclaw. Krakow falls within the consular district of Katowice.

These matters are kept under constant review, and the case for further Honorary Consulates will be considered carefully.
