Proceeding contribution from Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

Given the contingencies that my right hon. Friend outlines, is it not important for us to have a strategic reserve? What lessons can be learned from last year's debacle, when the previous Government had to do a humiliating U-turn over cuts to the Territorial Army, to ensure that we do not make such mistakes again in the coming defence review?
