HL Deb 25 July 1990 vol 521 cc1608-9WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the Treasury has contributed to the Government's and NATO's decisions not, in the foreseeable future, to engage in negotiations with the Soviet Union on naval arms control and reductions.

The Earl of Caithness

Our arms control policy, on which the FCO takes the lead, is established in consultation with all departments concerned, including the Treasury.
