HC Deb 03 December 1990 vol 182 cc52-3W
Mr. Home Robertson

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what restrictions apply to the transport of military equipment from bases in Germany to the Gulf area through Austrian airspace; what problems and costs have arisen from the restrictions; and if any request has been made to the Austrian authorities for the relaxation of the restrictions.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

The details of bilateral arrangements with other countries covering military overflights are classified and it is not the Government's policy to comment on such matters.
