Lord Jenkins of Putney
asked Her Majesty's Government:Whether they have agreed to the re-use for further deployment in Europe of nuclear warheads dismantled under the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Agreement from missiles based in this country.
Lord Trefgarne
The INF Treaty provides for the elimination of INF missiles, launchers and support equipment but not warheads. The US and Soviet Union may remove such warheads and, if they wish, convert them for use on other missiles. We are unaware of any US proposals to do so.
