MR NELSON MANDELA AND NEGOTIATIONS ON THE FUTURE OF SOUTH AFRICA

That this House welcomes the forthcoming visit to Britain of the President of the African National Congress, Mr Nelson Mandela; expresses its appreciation for the constructive role which he is playing in seeking to secure a negotiated political settlement in South Africa; is greatly encouraged by the proposals put forward by Mr Mandela and the ANC in February 1993 for the transition of South Africa towards a non-racial democracy; looks forward to rapid agreement in the negotiations; and in particular hopes that agreement will be reached immediately on the date for South Africa's first ever one-person one-vote election.
