HC Deb 22 May 1973 vol 857 cc34-5W
28. Rear-Admiral Morgan-Giles

asked the Minister of State for Defence to which foreign Governments he has supplied details of the Nimrod aircraft.

Mr. Ian Gilmour

It is primarily the responsibility of the manufacturer, Hawker Siddeley Aviation Ltd, to supply details of Nimrod to foreign Governments subject to the approval of Her Majesty's Government. It is not Her Majesty's Government's practice to reveal the identity of countries that have received information of this nature.
