Proceeding contribution from Crispin Blunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Defence Procurement.
Defence Procurement
I understand that we lost the TRACER—tactical reconnaissance armoured combat equipment requirement—programme because a congressional sub-committee put a line through the programme in Congress, against the wishes of the Pentagon. I entirely agree with my hon. Friend about the consequences of doing business with the United States.
