§ Mr. FlynnTo ask the Prime Minister if he will place in the Library his response to the nuclear disarmament initiative made by President Gorbachev on 5 October.
§ Mr. MacGregorI have been asked to reply.
My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister has already made it clear that the Government warmly welcome the response made by President Gorbachev to President Bush's initiative of 27 September. Together they represent a genuine opportunity to maintain secure defence at a lower level of armaments.
