Select Committee on Foreign Affairs Minutes of Evidence


Letter to the Clerk of the Committee from the Office of Tibet

  It was nice meeting you the other day to discuss the invitation from the Foreign Affairs Committee to His Holiness the Dalai Lama for a hearing on Tibet. As discussed, I had forwarded the invitation letter to His Holiness' Office in Dharamsala, India, and enclosed please find His Holiness' letter to the FAC Chairman. The Rt Hon Mike Gapes, MP.

  Kindly present this letter to Mr Gapes as soon as possible for it also contains some requests that require his and his Committee's immediate attention and action, especially in the light of the life and death situation the Tibetan people in Lhasa and other parts of Tibet are facing under the repressive policies and violence from the Chinese authorities.

  I look forward to working with you and your office and please feel free to contact or call me anytime.

  Representative of His Holiness the Dalai Lama

for Northern Europe, Poland & the Baltic Countries
