HC Deb 25 January 1999 vol 324 c150W
Mr. Soames

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on relations with Iran. [67276]

Mr. Fatchett

The New York agreement of September 1998 has allowed a welcome improvement in relations between the United Kingdom and Iran. We will continue to look for ways of strengthening relations further in areas of mutual interest while also pressing, with our EU partners, for improvements in Iranian policies which give us particular concern.
