Written question asked by David Reed (Conservative) on Wednesday, 18 December 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 6 January 2025. It was answered by Maria Eagle (Labour) on Thursday, 9 January 2025 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Type 32 Frigates
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 9 December 2024 to Question 17483 on Type 32 Frigates, at what stage in its concept phase the Type 32 frigate programme is; and what stages of the concept phase have been completed.
- Answer
-
The Type 32 frigate programme is in the concept phrase and has not yet reached the level of maturity to allow publication of a specific timetable for design and procurement. This is consistent with a programme of this size and complexity at this early stage in its development.
All future designs of the Royal Navy will be part of the Strategic Defence Review (SDR) so would be inappropriate to provide further detail until SDR decisions have been made.
