HC Deb 02 February 1966 vol 723 cc1072-3
28. Mr. Marten

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will give a non-classified summary of the recommendations of the Bondi Report on space matters.

Mr. Millan

I have nothing to add to the summary which was given by my noble Friend the Minister of Defence for the Royal Air Force in another place on 3rd November, 1965.

Mr. Marten

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that that information was not enough? The industry wants to know what was in the Report. Will he look at this again and chuck aside some of the security?

Mr. Millan

There is the question of security, but I would not agree that the information given was not of use. Considerable information was given about the military implications of space matters from the point of view of communications, reconnaissance and so on. If there is any further information that we can give, we shall give it.
