HC Deb 12 December 1960 vol 632 c6W
71. Mr. Swingler

asked the Lord Privy Seal what further study has been made of the proposal for limited arms zones, to which attention was drawn in the joint communiqué of the Prime Minister and Mr. Khrushchev in January, 1959.

Mr. Godber

I assume that the hon. Gentleman is referring to the communiqué issued in Moscow after the Prime Minister's visit in March, 1959. Proposals which would have led to progress in this matter were made in the Western Peace Plan presented at the Foreign Ministers' Conference in May of that year. We still stand by those proposals.
