Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty

HC Deb 20 February 1995 vol 255 c12W

Mr. Austin Mitchell

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what proposals he has for replacing the nuclear non-proliferation treaty with a nuclear weapons convention using the chemical weapons convention as a basis.

Mr. David Davis

There are no such plans. We believe the nuclear non-proliferation treaty has worked well to contain the spread of nuclear weapons.
