HL Deb 16 October 1995 vol 566 c82WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the United States Tomahawk to which they have now committed the United Kingdom will be fitted with the electronic or other "permissive links" usually fitted to these missiles; and if so, whether British or United States commanders will operate them.

Earl Howe

The Tomahawk missiles which we propose to procure from the United States would not be fitted with electronic or other permissive links.
