HL Deb 18 July 1996 vol 574 c79WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether all the information obtained by United States surveillance aircraft operating "Rivet Joint" and other intelligence sorties out of Mildenhall, Lakenheath and other bases in the United Kingdom and in British-owned territories elsewhere is currently made available to them, and, if not, now the Cold War is over and there is a requirement for such information for the successful operation of the new Joint Task Forces, whether they will renegotiate the original agreements that this information is automatically made available to them.

Earl Howe

It is not our practice to comment on such matters.
