Select Committee on Foreign Affairs Written Evidence


Letter to the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs from the Chairman of the Committee

  The Committee this week considered the Government's Response to the Report on Cyprus, published in February.

  We will wish to follow up a number of the specific responses at the end of the UK Presidency. Meanwhile, however, my colleagues and I are anxious to ensure that there is no loss of momentum in efforts to resolve the two communities' differences. I would be grateful, therefore, to learn what the Government has been doing to, in the words of your response, "place a high emphasis on the successful resolution of Cyprus-related issues during our own EU Presidency" and whether any new initiative is planned, be it in the context of the EU, the UN or some other forum.

Mike Gapes MP

Chairman of the Committee
