ANTI-BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENCE SYSTEMS

HC Deb 13 February 1967 vol 741 cc14-5W

90. Mr. Alan Lee Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what representations have been made to the Governments of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United States on the question of anti-ballistic missile defence systems; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. George Brown

We have been in touch with both the United States and the Soviet Governments on the question of Anti-Ballistic Missile systems. As I explained in answer to a Question by my hon. Friend the Member for Oxford (Mr. Luard) on 7th February, we hope to see the United States and the Soviet Union move towards an understanding on this vital question.—[Vol. 740, c. 277.]
