<p>The legal and moral responsibility to pay pensions to former Rhodesian and Zimbabwean
public servants sits with the Government of Zimbabwe. The British Government continues
to remind the relevant authorities in Zimbabwe of this legal commitment. Following

that pension repayments remain affected by current financial constraints in Zimbabwe
and the state of the wider economy. Nonetheless, at our prompting they committed to
continuing to seek a solution.</p>
