§ Mr. AllasonTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what plans there are to return the British Council library to Buenos Aires. [41644]
§ Sir Nicholas BonsorThe British Council has never had its own library in Argentina. The library in Buenos Aires belonged to the Buenos Aires Cultura—Anglo—Argentine cultural association. That still exists but is no longer co-located with the Council. The British Council continues to work closely with the Culturas throughout Argentina to meet the needs for books in English.
