Proceeding contribution from Gordon Birtwistle (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence Reform.
Defence Reform
Is the Secretary of State confident that the Puma helicopter upgrade being carried out overseas is on target and on budget? Is he confident that, when upgraded, those helicopters will carry out their intended role? Does he agree that it might be a better option to scrap the upgrade and use the money to buy new state-of-the-art helicopters from AgustaWestland, which will carry out their intended role and have a service life of 40 years?
