HC Deb 12 June 1990 vol 174 c140W
Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will review his policy of not indicating which of Her Majesty's ships are carrying nuclear weapons.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

It has been the invariable practice of successive British Governments neither to confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear weapons in any particular ship at any particular time. There are no plans to change this policy.
