Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Naseby (Conservative). It was answered on Wednesday, 14 October 2009.
Armed Forces: Parachuting
- Question
- My Lords, when exactly will this all be sorted out? This is not an optional extra of Her Majesty's forces: this is a key component of them.
- Answer
-
My Lords, as I made clear, the current capability is there. The lack of parachute training is not having an effect on the mandated operational capacity. Of course, we would like to improve the training facilities, but I hope that everybody would agree that it is right to give operational needs the priority that we have given them.
