Proceeding contribution from Lord Jopling (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 1 February 2017. It occurred during Question for short debate on NATO: Member State Spending.

It might be helpful to have what the noble Lord suggests, but also let us point out that if defence spending is 2.21%, which the Library says it is—that same figure appeared in the Times only a few weeks back—it is worth roughly £4 billion, which is a massive amount of spending on top of the 2%.
