Mr. Keetch: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent discussions his Department has had with
its United States counterparts with regard to the United States' recent proposals to strengthen the biological and toxic weapons
convention. [13945]
Mr. Bradshaw: We are in frequent contact with the United States, and other States Parties to the Biological Weapons Convention, on
our respective ideas for strengthening the Convention. The Foreign Secretary discussed the subject with the US Secretary of State
during his visit to Washington in October.

Mr. Swayne: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what biological or biologically derived samples have been supplied by the
Defence and Technology Laboratory at Porton Down to (a) USA, (b) France, (c) Belgium, (d) Sweden, (e) Australia, (f) Germany, (g)
Austria, (h) Spain, (i) Netherlands, (j) Norway, (k) Italy, (l) Japan and (m) Canada since 1990. [11502]
Dr. Moonie: Since 1990 the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory at Porton Down has supplied in excess of one hundred biological
or biologically derived materials to these countries for medical and veterinary research purposes.
The majority of this material has been supplied under International Collaboration Research agreements relating to biological
detection capability and potential medical countermeasures. However, it would not be appropriate to publish a list of the biological
material supplied to these countries as this could reveal operational capabilities and deficiencies. I am therefore withholding this
information in the interests of National Security under category 1 of the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information.

Lynne Jones: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with his US counterpart
on the draft text of the biological weapons protocol; and if he will make a statement. [10779]
Mr. Bradshaw: My right hon. Friend the Foreign Secretary had a brief discussion on the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) with the
US Secretary of State, in Washington, on 24 October. The United States has not changed its position since it announced its decision,
on 25 July, in Geneva, that it could not support the draft protocol and that it could not be made acceptable by further amendment.
The United States has, however, made it clear that it remains committed to strengthening the BWC. The United Kingdom is continuing
to work with states parties to ensure that multilateral negotiations resume at an early stage, following the 5th Review Conference
in Geneva (19 November to 7 December). The United Kingdom remains committed to strengthening the convention by means of effective
investigation and enforcement.
