§ Mr. Wareingasked the Secretary of State for Defence what discussions his Department has recently had with the People's Republic of China; and what results he expects to flow from these discussions.
§ Mr. Norman LamontI visited the People's Republic of China from 2–6 April 1986. The prime objective of my visit was to explore the scope for increasing collaboration on defence procurement matters. My discussions in China provide a useful basis for the continuing dialogue with the Chinese on procurement related topics.
