Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Prime Minister which Government Departments provide representatives to the planning boards of North Atlantic Treaty Organisation wartime civil agencies; who are currently appointed as United Kingdom representatives to these bodies and to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation Civil Defence Planning Committee; and what is the cost of United Kingdom participation in such activities.

The Prime Minister

The United Kingdom is represented as follows:

opportunity to raise the issue of nuclear non-proliferation and the nuclear non-proliferation treaty with foreign Governments or Heads of State.

The Prime Minister

Both Foreign and Commonwealth Office Ministers and I have raised nuclear non-proliferation with a wide range of countries. In particular, we have urged many of the countries which have yet to adhere to the non-proliferation treaty to become members.
