Control of Surplus Armaments

Part of Ballot for Notices of Motions – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 8 April 1964.

Alert me about debates like this

In general, the forbidding of the supply of arms except by sale through a Government monopoly would not in itself make any greater contribution to the preservation of peace than we have already through our adherence to such bodies as the United Nations or N.A.T.O. I believe, therefore, that this is a Bill far the introduction of which we should not give leave, and I oppose the Motion.
