Proceeding contribution from Mark Pritchard (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 December 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence Industrial Strategy.


Defence Industrial Strategy

The Secretary of State mentioned outsourcing aeronautical engineering in pursuit of value for money. Does he agree that value for money can also be found in the public sector? If so, will he give an assurance today that those skills will be retained in the Defence College of Aeronautical Engineering in my constituency and within the public sector, so that there is a public-private partnership, not a drive towards and a doctrine of privatisation, which will see hundreds of jobs lost in my constituency?
