HL Deb 07 February 2000 vol 609 c58WA
Lord Moynihan

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What is their definition of "ethnic cleansing". [HL702]

Baroness Scotland of Asthal

There is no legal definition of "ethnic cleansing". Her Majesty's Government have vigorously condemned in the former Yugoslavia and elsewhere policies and actions aimed at forcibly driving an ethnic group from a particular region.
