G8: 2007 Summit

My Lords, I think that, given her background, the noble Baroness understands that there is always serious effort to secure support before issues are taken on the floor at the UN, particularly the Security Council. In answer to an earlier question, I made it absolutely clear that, around the UN table, the permanent members of the Security Council do not all necessarily share the same view on the use of sanctions, not just in relation to Sudan over Darfur but in other instances as well. This is a continuing issue that we need to discuss in all the fora available to us. We will continue to do that.
