The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of how many UK-based supply chain jobs are supported by DSTL’s Air Systems Programme.

Answered by Luke Pollard

Dstl has not made an assessment of the UK-based supply chain jobs supported (either exclusively or in part) by the Air Systems Programme delivered through Dstl.

Over recent years, Dstl has significantly increased the value of science and technology research delivered externally through its diverse supplier base within UK industry and academia.
