Defence in the UK
I am very grateful to the Minister. In fact, most of my information comes from the people who have performed all those tasks in Afghanistan. That is what I have been told by them, and sometimes I prefer to rely on what they say. Commanders do not have a choice. [Interruption.] No, they do not have a choice in every circumstance. If the Minister wishes to intervene and say that commanders have a choice of vehicle on every single occasion, I shall be grateful to him.
