Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

I had responsibility for this matter as a Minister and we looked at rebasing from Germany. The estimate back in 1994 when we brought most of the RAF back was something like £5 billion. Under the treaty, there is a responsibility to write to the German Government to inform them that we want to withdraw. I made some inquiries this week and found out that that has not yet happened.
