Parachute Training

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the future of military parachute training.
Answer

As part of the Department’s present planning round, we are examining a range of proposals for the defence programme, both to enhance investment in certain areas and to reduce investment in areas of lower priority.
