lJNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS
The Earl of CLANCARTY asked Her
Majesty's Government:
Whether since their last reply (Official
Report, 1st December, col. 1453) they
have now obtained the official transcript
of the broadcast on France-Inter radio
station, February 1974, when the then
French Minister of Defence, Monsieur
Robert Galley, was interviewed by
Jean-Claude Bourret about unidentified
· flying objects.
Lord WINTERBOTTOM: The
Ministry of Defence now has the official
transcript of M. Galley's broadcast
1974. Nothing in it indicates the existence
of a threat to the United Kingdom.
