Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, Written Answers, 22 July 2008 : Column 1123W

Jim Cousins: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what plans he has to propose changes to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty; and if he will make a statement.

Dr. Howells: The nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT) has served the international community well. It remains the foundation of international non-proliferation efforts and a key contribution to collective peace and security. The UK does not plan to reopen the NPT for negotiation. But we are committed to a successful NPT review conference in 2010 and will work to promote consensus around key measures to strengthen the treaty’s three pillars: zero tolerance of proliferation; a clear forward plan on multilateral nuclear disarmament; and supporting the right to the safe, secure and peaceful use of nuclear energy.
