Proceeding contribution from Duncan Hames (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 4 April 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Africa and the Middle East.


Africa and the Middle East

I heard what the Foreign Secretary said to the hon. Member for Brent North (Barry Gardiner) on asset freezing, but in a statement last week he painted quite a rosy picture to the House about the benefit to the Libyan people of a future Libyan Government spending those assets. Can he reassure us that any loosening of sanctions in response to those deserting the Gaddafi regime will not allow those people to take with them riches gained as a result of their long association with Gaddafi which belong to the Libyan people?
