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


Defence Reform

I welcome many of the proposals in the report, but should not the reorganisations announced today and the forthcoming review of reserve forces have been conducted in parallel with the SDSR? This combined with the Arab spring means that the case for a new chapter is overwhelming. Does the Secretary of State agree that the world has moved on and that defence policy and resources should move with it?
