Proceeding contribution from Bob Ainsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on Defence Procurement.


Defence Procurement

We do not report the end of planning rounds, and I am not aware of any previous Government having done so. We report decisions that have been taken, at the appropriate time, and we will continue to do so. From a planning point of view, it is common sense to undertake this short review—short in terms of the time that we hope it will take—in order to inform the next planning round. Of course we will inform the House of any individual decision as soon as it is taken, and as soon as we are able to do so.
