Proceeding contribution from Lord Howell of Guildford (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Syria.
Syria
I fully share the noble Lord’s remarks about Simon Collis, our excellent ambassador. He is recalled here for consultation. We are not closing the embassy at this stage. Obviously it is a matter under complete review, as is the question of the security of embassy staff and everyone concerned. I can confirm what my right honourable friend said in his Statement—that the ambassador has been recalled for consultation. We are not closing the embassy at this stage.
