WESTERN EUROPEAN UNION (ARMAMENTS CONTROL AGENCY)

HC Deb 05 March 1962 vol 655 cc9-10W

59. Mr. Warbey

asked the Lord Privy Seal how many experts on nuclear weapons are attached to the staff of the Armaments Control Agency of Western European Union.

Mr. Heath

No such specialists have yet been appointed to the staff of the Agency, because, as I told the hon. Gentleman in my reply of 21st February, the conditions laid down in the Treaty for fixing levels of stocks of nuclear weapons and for the simultaneous introduction of controls have not yet been fulfilled.
