§ Mr. HillTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is his policy on the conditions and framework in which a European centre for preventing military risks might be set up, as proposed by the Belgian Government.
§ Mr. WaldegraveDiscussions are in train at the talks in Vienna on confidence and security building measures (CSBMs) about the possible establishment of dedicated communications links among all 35 participants to deal with security-related issues; and the conventional forces in Europe (CFE) talks are likely to result in the creation of some kind of joint consultative commission among the 23 members of NATO and the Warsaw Pact. It remains to be seen whether any further body would be useful.
