Recommendation 297 of the WEU Assembly on a European armaments policy (Paris, 21 June 1977)
Text On 21 June 1977, the Assembly of Western European Union (WEU) adopts Recommendation 297 on a European armaments policy. It recommends that the Council urge the member governments, severally and jointly in all appropriate bodies, to pursue the objective of ensuring the maintenance of a viable defence production industry in Europe taking account of the needs of national defence plans and of the Atlantic Alliance. The document also calls for the institutional basis of joint production to be streamlined by concentrating on the independent European Programme Group and ensuring that military characteristics of equipment are determined within NATO.
