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, the joint forces command is a new command with a four-star commander. We are not forcing the chiefs out of London; they can still have a base there. We expect them to continue to keep a base in London, with a smaller staff, but to spend more of their time with their own services.
