§ 77. Mr. Sorensenasked the Prime Minister whether he is now in a position to make a statement as to whether His Majesty's Government are prepared to initiate immediate action respecting the international abolition of aerial warfare?
§ The Prime MinisterI would refer the hon. Member to the statement I made in the House on 2rst June, in which I explained that His Majesty's Government are already engaged in a survey of the questions at issue.
§ Mr. SorensenIs the right hon. Gentleman not aware that when I asked a similar question he referred me to the Debate which was to follow, and is it not a fact that no reference was made in that Debate to the major part of that question?
§ The Prime MinisterI do not know whether that was the case, but I think that the answer which I gave to the hon. Member gave all the information I could.
§ Mr. SorensenMay I take it that the right hon. Gentleman will take no initiative in this matter?
§ The Prime MinisterNot until we have completed our survey.
§ Mr. ManderIs not action the last thing in which the Government are interested?
