HC Deb 01 August 1980 vol 989 c859W
Mr. Roper

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what different arrangements he is visualising for the deployment of NATO forces on the central front, how far these might lead to a lesser military effort there by the United Kingdom; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Pym

The deployment of NATO forces is a matter for the collective decision of Alliance Ministers, taking into account the threat to Western interests posed by the Warsaw Pact. As far as the central region is concerned the United Kingdom contribution will remain in accordance with our commitments under the Brussels Treaty.
