HL Deb 09 February 2004 vol 656 c127WA
Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What steps they will take, as a member of the United Nations Security Council, to secure Morocco's adherence to the United Nations peace plan for western Sahara within the three-month extension of the mandate of the United Nations Mission for a Referendum on western Sahara. [HL1085]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

We will continue to urge Morocco to engage constructively with the UN Secretary-General's personal envoy, James Baker III, on the current Baker peace plan for western Sahara, to reach a solution that is acceptable to all parties and which allows for self-determination for the people of western Sahara.
