HC Deb 18 February 1991 vol 186 c54W
Mr. Churchill

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with his European Community counterparts to reach an accord that would effectively prevent European firms from providing technology and equipment that would enable another country to acquire weaponry of mass destruction.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

We and our partners in the Twelve regularly discuss measures to combat the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The European Council in Rome in December 1990 identified non-proliferation as a possible area for intensified co-ordination among the Twelve.
