Proceeding contribution from Lord Stirrup (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 2 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Armed Forces: Redundancy.
Armed Forces: Redundancy
My Lords, these painful redundancies are an outcome of the strategic defence and security review, which, as the Minister said, was aimed at delivering Future Force 2020. Can he confirm that that Future Force, as planned, will be achievable only with specific real-term growth in the defence budget in the second half of this decade? What assumptions are his department making about the financial planning levels for those years?
