HC Deb 06 July 1981 vol 8 c48W
Mr. Trippier

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what steps have been taken to increase co-operation between North Atlantic Treaty Organisation countries in matters such as rights of passage and overflying.

Mr. Blaker

Rights of passage and overflying for Allied forces are well recognised in NATO as of key military importance. A number of agreements between NATO Allies relating to such matters already exist and increased co-operation is a continued objective.
