asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a further statement about the future territorial integrity of Belize.

As I informed the House on 17 January—[Vol. 960, c. 1695.] —and on previous occasions, no settle- ment will be made with Guatemala which is unacceptable to the people of Belize. Their representatives have made it clear that they regard territorial cession as unacceptable.
