- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the cost, and over what period, for the introduction of the Royal Marines Future Commando Force.
- Answer
-
A generous settlement of over £24 billion has allowed Defence to invest in amongst other things the delivery of the Future Commando Force and we will be spending in excess of an additional £200 million over ten years to support this. Other elements of the Royal Navy's programme, such as the future landing craft project, are funded to over £50 million. The wider ship building pipeline will also support the UK's Commando Forces.
