The noble Lord should not suggest that there was discord between the three nations. There was discord at a company level, where it was decided that a number of the dynamics would not operate together. There is no discord between France, Germany and the UK in this matter. In fact, we have very positive relationships.

My Lords, Germany and France pursue their national interests vigorously through EADS. Will the British Government pursue the interests of the British worker and British strategic interests through BAE Systems?
