32. Sir David Price

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the Government's announcement that the reserve forces for home defence are to be increased, he has any proposal to make changes in his provision for civil defence.

Mr. Mayhew

No. Good progress continues to be made, following the statement of my right hon. Friend the Home Secretary of 7 August 1980, in such areas as the modernisation of the equipment of the warning and monitoring organisation, the extension of training facilities, the co-ordination of voluntary effort and the provision of information to the public.
