Use Of Menwith Hill And Fylingdales
EDM number 1279 in 2001-02, proposed by Alice Mahon on 10/05/2002.
That this House notes the death of the ABM treaty in mid-June owing to USA withdrawal and recognises that the United States Government is now free to request use of Menwith Hill and Fylingdales as part of its proposed missile defence system; further notes that any use of these bases for a missile defence system will directly affect the people of the United Kingdom and that as yet their representatives have had no chance to express their views on the proposals in parliament; and urges the United Kingdom Government to call an urgent debate in the House before any such system is considered.
This motion has been signed by a total of 54 MPs.
