Proceeding contribution from Baroness Amos (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 11 July 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8: 2005 Summit.


G8: 2005 Summit

My Lords, I apologise if I have confused the noble Baroness, Lady Park. There is a major UN millennium review summit at the UN in September, which is the annual meeting attended by heads of countries. That is entirely separate from the report that will be made by the UN Secretary-General’s envoy to Zimbabwe, which will be made to the UN Security Council. I think that the envoy has now left Zimbabwe. He will report to the Secretary-General and the Security Council as a matter of urgency. My understanding is that the African Union envoy was kept in the hotel in Harare and was unable to leave to conduct any kind of a review and therefore left the country.
