Proceeding contribution from Thomas Docherty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

Can the Prime Minister tell us whether Rosyth dockyard's frigate refit orders between now and 2013 will go ahead? If I understand the document correctly, he has put back the Queen Elizabeth's entry date, and we note that there is no entry date for the Prince of Wales. What does that mean for the work force at Rosyth and elsewhere? Will we simply see a continuation of the policies of the right hon. and learned Member for Kensington (Sir Malcolm Rifkind), and the destruction of the Scottish shipbuilding industry?
