I appreciate that these discussions may be confidential, but is not the right hon. Gentleman aware that the so-called British proposals have been widely discussed in the Press in this and other countries? Can he explain how that comes to be? Does he not think that, in these circumstances, an authoritative statement of Government policy to this House should be made in order to correct any misapprehensions? Secondly, will he confirm or deny that the proposals we put forward include some measure of mixed-manned surface ships carrying nuclear missiles?
