Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 March 2014. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Nuclear Submarines.


Nuclear Submarines

Our track record speaks for itself. Since 1963, the Royal Navy has operated 80-odd cores, both at sea and at shore-based test reactors. Rolls-Royce has acted as the technical authority and delivery partner, providing the design and manufacture of cores in an arrangement that has been very satisfactory. Nothing that I am announcing should in any way be taken to

undermine the success of that relationship, or Rolls-Royce’s status as a world-leading provider of military reactor cores.
