The issue came under discussion in a meeting between Merzak Belhimeur, Ambassador of Algeria and M. Marc Innes-Brown, who recently appointed as First Assistant Secretary for Middle East and Africa, at the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, DFAT.

Mrs Alison Chartres, Assistant Secretary, Africa Branch, Middle East and Africa Division also attended the meeting.
