HC Deb 06 February 1990 vol 166 cc589-90W 589W

§ 14. Mr. Jack Thompson
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how much money his Department has committed to the European co-operative long-term initiative for defence.

§ Mr. Alan Clark
No money has yet been committed by any nation to this initiative. We expect that the first590W detailed collaborative programmes will be agreed in the course of this year. The precise extent of United Kingdom funding will then become clearer and will come from moneys voted for defence research.
