Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether anyone from his Department will attend the third international Conference on the Humanitarian Consequences of Nuclear Weapons in Vienna in December; and what discussions he has had with international counterparts about that Conference.

I refer to the answer given on 14 May 2014, Official Report, column 675W. We await details of the Conference agenda and objectives. I have not discussed the Conference with my international counterparts.
