HC Deb 24 October 1989 vol 158 c437W
97. Mr. David Shaw

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence whether there are any proposals to alter the current force-to-space ratio on NATO's central front.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

NATO's forces in the central region are kept under constant review within the normal force planning cycle. In due course, the Alliance may need to take account of any changes in force structures agreed as a result of the current negotiations on conventional forces in Europe.
