Will the hon. Gentleman look again at the Answer he has given, when he said that the Russians are asking for a system of self-enforcement? Will he not, on reflection, agree that that is a quite misleading statement about what it is that the Russians want? The argument is as between the proportion of nationals of any State and the inspectors from other countries from overseas. Can we have a more detailed statement as to what the respective positions are of the different nations at Geneva so that the country can make up its mind about which country is responsible for any delay in reaching agreement?
