§ The Prime MinisterAs the hon. Member will know from my answer to his question on 22 January, the guidelines of 277W the Nuclear Suppliers Group are designed to avoid nuclear exports contributing to the proliferation of nuclear weapons, whether in Asia or elsewhere. Our own nuclear export policy is largely based on those guidelines. I have at present no plans to discuss them with President Carter
