Proceeding contribution from Lord Astor of Hever (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence: Reform.


Defence: Reform

My Lords, my noble friend raises an interesting point about the Treasury agreeing to 10-year funding and cross-party agreement on it. This question is very much above my pay grade and I will let my noble friend know. Clearly a lot of the financing of defence was looked at in the SDSR, and it is vital that the points made by the noble Lord, Lord Levene, and the reforms that we bring in are properly funded.
