HC Deb 01 December 1998 vol 321 cc159-60W
33. Sir Teddy Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what progress has been made in resolving the issue of the proposed trial in The Hague of the alleged Lockerbie suspects. [61413]

Mr. Tony Lloyd

We have provided comprehensive clarification on issues raised by Libya through the UN on the terms of the initiative. These answers demonstrate that we are acting in good faith. We are in close touch with the UN Secretary-General, who is mandated by the UN Security Council resolutions to seek Libyan compliance. We now look to Libya for a prompt and positive response.
