Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on European Global Navigation Satellite System.


European Global Navigation Satellite System

I hope that the hon. Gentleman will check Hansard tomorrow and then apologise to me. At no time did I say that there was any possibility of someone turning off the system. I did say that there is a possibility of charges being placed on the system when it suits the US supplier. That would be disruption due to cost. I think that there should be an alternative. If the Russians think that there should be an alternative and the Chinese are developing an alternative, Europe should think about developing an alternative—[Interruption.]
