Proceeding contribution from Liam Fox (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence Reform.


Defence Reform

We have already put in place some of the recommendations, including the defence board, and we have begun implementing some of the other changes. We have put into place the major projects board, which will give greater accountability in terms of the running of the major projects. As for Libya, I repeat the point that I made earlier. While we will constantly look at the resources available, the public message must be simply that we understand the mission that we are undertaking, its legality and its moral force, and we have the political will and military wherewithal to see it through.
