HC Deb 24 February 1958 vol 583 cc8-9W
68. Mr. Pitman

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what proposals, in the course of negotiations at Lancaster House, Her Majesty's Government have made for a provisional agreement for phased transfer of armaments to a supranational authority.

Mr. Ian Harvey

The Western Powers' plan for partial disarmament, which was tabled in the Disarmament Sub-Committee on 29th August, included a proposal that the States concerned should place in storage depots, within their own territories and under the supervision of an international control organisation, specific quantities of designated types of conventional armaments to be set out in agreed lists.
