Partial Test Ban Treaty

HC Deb 06 June 1989 vol 154 cc31-2W

Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when and where the initial discussions on the amendment conference for the 1963 partial test ban treaty took place; and when and where he expects the trilateral discussions between the partial test ban treaty depository states to take place.

Mr. Waldegrave

Initial discussions between the depository Governments have taken place over the last two months in London, Washington, Moscow and Geneva. We expect that the depository Governments will meet trilaterally later this month, probably in Geneva.
