HC Deb 15 April 1994 vol 241 c350W
Dr. David Clark

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what information he has concerning a breach of security at a Russian intercontinental ballistic missile site at Barnaul in the Russian Republic on 10 March.

Mr. Hanley

We are aware that there was a breakdown in discipline leading to a shooting incident at the Barnaul nuclear missile site in Siberia on 10 March. We do not believe that this incident posed any significant security risk to the installation, nor was there any likelihood of a nuclear incident resulting from the occurrence.
