HC Deb 07 March 2001 vol 364 c268W 268W

§ Mr. Menzies Campbell
To ask the Prime Minister if his joint communiqué with the President of the United States and his subsequent statement to the press represent a change in the Government's policy towards potential US plans for National Missile Defence. [151856]

§ The Prime Minister
No. We continue to share US concerns about the threat posed by the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery, and we recognise the role that missile defence can play as one part of a strategy to deal with it.
