asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will take steps designed to ensure the immediate withdrawal of South African forces from Rhodesia.

I have nothing to add to what my right hon. Friend said on this subject in the course of his statement on Southern Africa on 14th January.

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he is satisfied that civil and political liberties in Rhodesia have now been restored for all citizens.

No. We have urged that the agreements reached in Lusaka in December should be firmly implemented as a first step towards a satisfactory solution of Rhodesia's problems.
