Oxford Research Group Seminar

HC Deb 17 May 1994 vol 243 cc383-4W

Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence who represented his Department at the seminar on "Britain and the Non-Proliferation Regime: 1995 and Beyond", held in Oxford on 19 April, organised by the Oxford research group; and what benefits accrued to his Department from its representation.

Mr. Hanley

My Department was represented by the Director of Defence Policy. I understand that the seminar provided a useful forum for discussion on the approach to the 1995 conference of the parties to the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
