HC Deb 27 June 1984 vol 62 cc449-50W
Mr. Latham

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he is prepared to consider requests for sales by British companies of arms to Israel; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Pattie

Since 30 June 1982 the United Kingdom and other members of the European Community have suspended licences for the sale of defence equipment to Israel. These restrictions, imposed following the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, remain in force but are kept under review.
