§ 57. Mr. Fryasked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list any offers to quote for American defence contracts which have been made since and in connection with the decision to purchase the airborne warning and control system.
§ Mr. Archie HamiltonThe bidding opportunities being made available by Boeing and its sub-contractors to meet their commitments in relation to the selection of the AWACS system for the RAF, and the responses by British companies, are a purely commercial matter. We are, however, closely monitoring contracts placed under the offset arrangements.
