Proceeding contribution from Lord Burnett (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 2 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence: Treaties with France.
Defence: Treaties with France
My Lords, I am reassured by my noble friend saying that none of this will in any way jeopardise our close links with our allies in the United States. He talked about achieving better value for money for the British taxpayer. Does he believe that there will be any savings and, if there are, will they be retained by the Ministry of Defence? Furthermore, will some of those savings be used to retain our Harrier aircraft, which are vital to our defence capability?
