Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on his Department's policy towards the current applications by Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth to obtain observer status at the 1985 non-proliferation treaty (NPT) review conference.

Mr. Luce

Rule 44 of the draft rules of procedure agreed by the preparatory committee for the conference would permit such organisations to attend meetings of the plenary and of the main committees as observers, and to receive the documents of the conference.
