HC Deb 20 December 1982 vol 34 cc409-10W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence how many of the planned 24 additional Rapier fire units for the Royal Air Force and Army are to supply the future needs of the Falklands garrison; and at what total cost.

Mr. Pattie

It would not be in the national interest to specify the number of Rapier units intended for future use by the Falklands garrison. It is not our practice to publish details of procurement contract costs.
