Proceeding contribution from Bob Ainsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 October 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence Acquisition (Independent Review).

Defence Acquisition (Independent Review)

Again, the hon. Gentleman misreads the report. He has had the weekend, but perhaps he wants to take a little longer to look at it. On the TA, as I said the other day, I make no apologies for shifting the focus towards Afghanistan and making absolutely certain that, in every sense, support for Afghanistan is the main effort. Nobody in the TA will lose out on the training that is necessary for deployments to Afghanistan.
