SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAQ

Early day motion 1359, tabled 21 May 1998 by Neil Gerrard (Labour). Signed by 6 members.

That this House notes with approval the recent statement by the Foreign Secretary, in response to the Indian nuclear weapons tests, that it is not proposed to withdraw aid from India, since the Government does not believe it would be right to register a protest about a decision taken at the highest levels of Indian society by taking steps that would hit the poorest in Indian society; and urges the Government to take a similar approach in relation to sanctions against Iraq.

Signatures by party: Labour 6.
