§ Mr. Whitakerasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what proposals he has to include China in any future disarmament agreement.
§ Mr. MulleyAs we have already made clear, we should like to see the People's Republic of China participating in disarmament negotiations. Unfortunately, they have so far declined to do so. We very much hope nevertheless that they will in due course subscribe to agreements reached in the arms control and disarmament field.
§ Mr. Whitakerasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in order to facilitate the future representation of China at the United Nations he will now propose that the present representative of Nationalist China be described as the representative of Taiwan or Formosa.
§ Mr. MulleyNo. It is likely that such a move would be opposed both by those who support the Nationalists and those who support the Chinese People's Government. It would therefore frustrate rather than facilitate our main objective which is to secure the representation of the People's Republic of China in the United Nations.
