HL Deb 07 November 1986 vol 481 c1259WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they can confirm, in view of official US Department of Defense statements that some two-thirds of the United States nuclear stockpile has yet to be fitted with up-to-date safety devices, that all American nuclear weapons deployed in the UK and UK territorial seas are so fitted.

Lord Trefgarne

Her Majesty's Government are entirely satisfied with the safety of all US nuclear weapons deployed in the UK.
