Sir Eldon Griffiths

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence when he expects to announce arrangements for the return to Britain of Tornado aircraft at present deployed to NATO bases in Germany; and if he will consider joint use by the RAF and the United States Air Force of facilities at RAF Lakenheath.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

Local station announcements are to be made shortly on the reductions in the RAF Tornado force in Germany foreshadowed in the statement by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Defence on 25 July 1990. There are no plans for the joint use by the RAF and the United States Air Force of facilities at RAF Lakenheath.
