HC Deb 25 October 1999 vol 336 c736W
Dr. Tonge

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent representations he has made to the Tanzanian Government about Hutu militia operating from its territory. [95226]

Mr. Hain

I discussed the security situation in the Burundi/Tanzania border area with the Tanzanian Foreign and Defence Ministers during my visit to Tanzania (14-15 October). The Government of Tanzania deny providing support of any kind to Hutu militia groups, and are making efforts to improve security in the border region in western Tanzania where the refugee camps are located.
