Buena Vista Social Club

EDM number 920 in 2002-03, proposed by Andrew Dismore on 19/03/2003.

That this House congratulates Buena Vista Social Club and Mr Ry Cooder on their highly successful musical collaborations which have brought pleasure to millions of people worldwide; is very concerned to hear that this partnership is jeopardised by the United States Government's intention to ban further such work as a result of their unjust trade embargo imposed on Cuba; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to make urgent representations to the United States Government to exempt musical and cultural partnerships and exchanges from its trade ban.

This motion has been signed by a total of 53 MPs.
