HL Deb 10 February 1997 vol 578 c1WA
Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they intend to respond to the detailed recommendations made in the report by Human Rights Watch/Helsinki. The Unindicted: Reaping the Rewards of Ethnic Cleansing, about obstruction of the Dayton Accords by the de facto authorities in the Republic Srpska, and particularly by Mr. Dragan Kijac, who is described as "Minister of the Interior", and if so, whether they will place a copy of the response in the Library of the House.

Baroness Chalker of Wallasey

We do not intend to respond to this report. The members of the Peace Implementation Council, meeting in London on 4th–5th December 1996, agreed that their willingness to devote further resources to Bosnia and Herzegovina depended upon a strengthened commitment from Bosnia's leaders to implementation of the Peace Agreement in all areas.
