§ Mr. O'Neillasked the Secretary of State for Defence (1) if he will list all military exercises involving British forces in 1984, the dates of duration and other countries involved;
(2) if he will list all joint British, Turkish and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation exercises involving military co-operation between Britain and Turkey since 1978.
§ Mr. StanleyConsiderations of both security and disproportionate cost prevent me from publishing a comprehensive list of exercises involving British forces in 1984, and a comprehensive list of exercises since 1978 involving British and Turkish forces. Britain and Turkey do of course take part in a number of NATO exercises each year.
