Envoys from the Dalai Lama are to hold talks with China aimed at ending the crisis in Tibet.

The meeting will be the first official contact between representatives of the exiled former Tibetan leader and the Chinese government since violent protests erupted in March.

The two envoys are due to arrive in China for "informal talks with representatives of the Chinese leadership," a statement from the Darecogniselai Lama said, but gave no further details.
