Oral answer to question provided on Monday, 20 February 2012 in the House of Commons, by Peter Luff (Conservative), Ministry of Defence.
Defence Munitions Beith
- Answer
-
There are no current plans to change the status of Defence Munitions Beith. The weapons end-to-end initiative is working on the best through-life support solution for the MOD and industry, taking into account the strategic requirement, value for money and the linkage with associated industries. This is a wide and complex piece of work. There is a need to maintain Beith at least until the Spearfish torpedo has been converted to a single-fuel system, when the need for specialist facilities may lapse. The conversion programme is expected to be completed around 2018.
