§ Mr. LevittTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on United Kingdom relations with Poland. [1085]
§ Mr. Doug HendersonBritain enjoys excellent relations with Poland. We have built up a strong partnership since 1989 which extends across a wide range of areas. The quality of bilateral relations is reflected in the number of high level visits which have taken place, in particular Her Majesty the Queen's highly successful State Visit to Poland in March 1996 and President Kwasniewski's Guest of Government visit to the UK last October. HMG continues to make good use of the opportunities generated by the State Visit to promote British interests and enhance our relations with Poland.
