HC Deb 19 February 1969 vol 778 cc458-9
29. Sir Ian Orr-Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he will make arrangements to transfer the Western Hill (Malaya) and Singapore military radar stations to Malaysia and Singapore; and if he will provide under contract the necessary technical assistance until local personnel can be trained.

Mr. Healey

We are discussing with the Malaysian and Singapore Governments the transfer of the radar stations at Western Hill and Bukit Gombak. We shall consider sympathetically any requests they put to us for help in maintaining and operating the stations.

Sir Ian Orr-Ewing

That is the first time I have had a satisfactory answer.

Mr. Healey rose

—

Mr. Speaker

Order. There is nothing to answer.
