HL Deb 11 March 1999 vol 598 cc43-4WA
Lord McNair

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How often Mr. Salah Idris has visited the United Kingdom since 20 August 1998. [HL1317]

Lord Williams of Mostyn

The information requested is not available. With several million visitors arriving in the United Kingdom every year, it would not be feasible to maintain complete records of all arrivals without excessive cost.

Lord McNair

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What information they have received from the United States Government about Mr. Salah Idris, the owner of the al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Khartoum. [HL1316]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean)

Under the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information, we cannot disclose information we have received in confidence from a foreign government.
