Nuclear Disarmament;amdt. Line 1:

EDM number 82A1 in 1998-99, proposed by Julian Lewis on 15/12/1998.

leave out from 'House' to end and add 'recognises that nuclear deterrence played a vital role in holding Soviet totalitarianism in check until the end of the Cold War; realises that mass destruction weapons cannot be disinvented; notes that, despite the signing of the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention, it took 20 years before the huge scale of Soviet secret biological weapons production was revealed; and anticipates that a nuclear-free world, even if achieved, would lay peaceful countries open to chemical or biological blackmail by future dictators and would again make the world safe for conventional conflicts between former nuclear powers.'.

This is a ammendment to 82.

This motion has been signed by a total of 10 MPs.
