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


Defence Procurement

I should regret it very much if this has not been made clear already, but my understanding is that the Secretary of State for Defence is attending another engagement, at which the Army is to receive an award. He thought that that was especially significant, and that is why he was unable to attend the debate.
