HC Deb 21 July 2004 vol 424 c342W
Mr. Rosindell

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what progress has been made with North Korea in recent months as regards its nuclear programme. [184239]

Mr. MacShane

The six-party talks process, the aim of which is the creation of a Korean Peninsula free of nuclear weapons, is continuing. While the United Kingdom is not involved in the talks we do fully support the process, and carefully monitor developments. We welcome the constructive approach that North Korea is taking towards the process.
