HC Deb 19 April 1978 vol 948 c154W
Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with his American counterpart regarding the implications of the neutron bomb upon detente; and if he will convey to him the widespread opposition within Great Britain to this weapon.

Mr. Judd

In discussions with the United States Administration and our other allies in NATO on the introduction of enhanced radiation warheads, all the implications and the different points at issue have been taken into account. As my hon. Friend will have recognised, the Government have supported President Carter's decision to defer production of enhanced radiation warheads.
