Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hussein-Ece (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Syria.


Syria

My Lords, perhaps I can ask my noble friend the Minister for some further clarification. In his response to the question asked by the noble Lord, Lord Triesman, on safe zones, I think he said that these had not yet been agreed or discussed. After the statement Turkey made over the weekend that its borders would now be open for people fleeing persecution, for refugees wanting to go across into Turkey for sanctuary, have there been any further discussions and deliberations on the creation of the buffer zone that was being discussed a few months ago?
