HC Deb 11 March 1968 vol 760 c229W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will state the cost for the years 1965, 1966 and 1967 incurred by the United Kingdom at the Suffield Testing Ground for Chemical and Microbiological Weapons, near Medicine Hat, Canada; how many qualified British scientists and engineers have been stationed at Suffield during these years; and how many tests of British weapons or equipment have been carried out at Suffield.

Mr. Mason

No costs were incurred during those years, apart from the expenses incurred as a result of normal exchange visits to Canada, which included Suffield. During the same period, no British scientists or engineers were stationed at Suffield, and no tests of British weapons or equipment were carried out there.
