HC Deb 02 June 1965 vol 713 c218W
Mr. McMaster

asked the Secretary of State for Defence how much he expects the United Kingdom to spend in each of the next five years on new aircraft which are to be purchased from the United States of America as a result of the Government's aircraft requirement changes already announced, and those suggested by the Government during the Defence Debates, respectively.

Mr. Healey

No final decisions have been taken but detailed discussions with the United States Government about initial aircraft orders involving expenditure of up to £70 million are now in hand.
