HC Deb 11 July 1979 vol 970 cc187-8W
17. Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will make a statement on the policy of Her Majesty's Government regarding disarmament; and what proposals he intends to submit to the United Nations on the matter.

Mr. Hurd

The Government will continue to work for agreement on balanced and verifiable arms control measures which maintain security at a lower level of risk and military expenditure. We shall play our part in disarmament discussions in the United Nations and elsewhere.
