Over the last five years, the Ministry of Defence has approved some 820 requests for funding for equipment through the urgent operational requirements process for Iraq and Afghanistan, at a cost of around £5.7 billion. Based on centrally available records the breakdown for each of the last five financial years is estimated as follows:
These figures include the protected mobility package (financial year 2008-09) and light protected patrol vehicle programme (financial year 2010-11).For financial year 2010-11, the figures given are the approval for the financial year to date, noting that it is not yet complete.The estimate of the number of requests for funding we have approved includes some business cases that have been subject to re-approvals as requirements have evolved, and some that will have been provided for both Iraq and Afghanistan. For these reasons, a single capability may have been counted more than once in these numbers.
