Proceeding contribution from Ann Winterton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Defence Procurement.


Defence Procurement

The Minister will know that yesterday I welcomed the extra Mastiffs, which are extremely popular vehicles. If someone is on patrol, they would rather go out in one of those than in anything else. Now that that announcement has been made, when will the order be placed, what is the delivery date, and is the Ministry of Defence considering medium protected patrol vehicles as well, which are very much needed, particularly in Afghanistan? Will he give the House some information on that?
