Polisario Front

Volume 504: debated on Tuesday 26 January 2010

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when a Minister last met persons working on behalf of the Polisario Front. (312351)

My right hon. Friend the Foreign Secretary met Independent Diplomat and discussed Western Sahara in January 2008. Officials in London also regularly meet with the Polisario’s representative in the UK. There have been no further ministerial meetings with people working on behalf of the Polisario Front. Foreign and Commonwealth Office officials from London and the UK’s Mission to the UN meet regularly with Independent Diplomat, with the last meeting being in December 2009.
