HL Deb 09 June 1999 vol 601 c164WA
Lord Jopling

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answer by Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean on 12 May (WA 151), on what dates over the past two years approaches have been made to the Governments of Syria, Jordan and Turkey about alleged breaches in the United Nations sanctions regime on Iraq; and what responses were received in each case. [HL2625]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

We have made a number of approaches both formal and informal with a range of contacts in Syria, Jordan and Turkey. It would be disproportionately costly to research the dates and exact substance of these contacts.
