HC Deb 15 July 1986 vol 101 cc492-3W
29. Mr. Favell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what is his latest estimate of the cost of the proposed advanced early warning system.

Mr. Lee

As my hon. Friend knows, we are currently assessing bids from companies competing to meet the United Kingdom Airborne Early Warning requirement. Until our assessment is complete and a decision taken on the way forward, I am unable to say what the cost might be.
