May I ask my right hon. Friend, first, what information, if any, will be given to Parliament about the nature of the commitments which are being entered into; and secondly, whether he took the opportunity of this meeting to draw attention to the fact that the United Kingdom is spending a bigger proportion of its national income on defence than any other Powers?
