§ 48. Mr. Thurtleasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the changed European situation since the project was last considered, he will have the question of the Channel Tunnel reviewed?
§ The Prime MinisterIt is not considered that there is any change in the 1628 European situation which would justify any alteration in the attitude taken by His Majesty's Government in relation to the Channel Tunnel from that adopted when the project was last considered. The answer to the last part of the question is, therefore, in the negative.
§ Mr. ThurtleCan the right hon. Gentleman say whether the Committee of Imperial Defence has considered this question at all since it took an adverse decision in 1930?
§ The Prime MinisterI should require notice of that question.
