Proceeding contribution from Baroness Amos (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 December 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Nuclear Deterrent.


Nuclear Deterrent

My Lords, my noble friend is quite right. I hope that I made it clear that continuous patrolling is the key and that we have to look at the technicalities and design of any new submarine. We would not reduce their number to three if we could not have continuous patrolling and factor in the unforeseen circumstances about which he spoke.
