Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Zimbabwe.


Zimbabwe

"Willing seller, willing buyer" is one thing, but the fact that the seller could not repatriate the money to the United Kingdom or wherever else they wanted to send it created a lot of pressure on the practicalities of the reform system. As I recall, in the mining sector, Lonrho negotiated a deal enabling it to take mining money out of the country. The whole thing was a complete mess, which is what generated a lot of the pressure.
