HC Deb 19 December 1967 vol 756 cc380-1W
Q21. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Prime Minister whether in his meeting with President Johnson he will raise the question of Anglo-American co-operation in setting up small, low-cost scientific stations in the Indian Ocean, as part of a coherent international marine science programme.

The Prime Minister:

No. I think it would be premature to raise this matter until the enormous task of making a full scientific assessment of the mass of data collected by many countries during the International Indian Ocean Expedition has been made.
