Proceeding contribution from Adam Price (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on Trident.


Trident

Was the hon. Gentleman as impressed as I was by the detailed evidence provided by independent experts from both sides of the Atlantic that argued that the life of the current Vanguard class could be extended by 20 years, not the five years argued by the Government? That suggests that the timing of the decision is political, rather than strategic.
