HC Deb 20 December 1982 vol 34 c409W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what will be the cost of the additional seven Harriers; and to what extent these will be dedicated to out of area operations.

Mr. Pattie

For reasons of commercial confidentiality, it would be inappropriate to disclose this cost information. The Royal Navy Sea Harriers are intended for operation off our carriers, which are dedicated to operations in and out of area as needs arise.
