Proceeding contribution from Lord Astor of Hever (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 2 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Armed Forces: Redundancy.


Armed Forces: Redundancy

I thank the noble Lord for that question. These are very painful cuts. When I became a Minister I did not look forward to making lots of cuts. It is a very difficult situation in which I find myself but we inherited this black hole and we have to act.
