Proceeding contribution from Lord Arbuthnot of Edrom (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 July 2005. It occurred during Urgent question on Armed Forces (Modernisation).
Armed Forces (Modernisation)
In recent weeks, we have heard of aircraft being unable to fly because of an absence of spares, pilots having only 15 hours flying time a month, and training being unable to take place because there is no blank ammunition. The Minister has made an important statement today—reluctantly, I suggest. What change will the things he has announced today make to the deplorable circumstances in which our armed forces are acting at the moment?
