- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 22 February 2021 to Question 153202 on Roll-on Roll-off Ships, what effect the Integrated Review will have on demand for strategic sealift capacity to 2030.
- Answer
-
There is a well established strategic need for the UK to be able to deploy military stores and equipment as required, globally on an assured and readily available basis. The Integrated Review has confirmed this renewed global ambition. Procurement of tonnage from 2024 onwards will be subject to the conditions of any future contract, the terms of which are yet to be determined.
