Defence: Industry
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, when he plans to publish the defence industrial strategy.
Answered by Maria Eagle
The Government will issue its new Defence Industrial Strategy in 2025. With defence identified as a high-growth sector within the UK Industrial Strategy, the Defence Industrial Strategy will be developed at pace in parallel to, but independent of, the Strategic Defence Review. The Defence Industrial Strategy will ensure that the imperatives of national security and a high-growth economy are aligned.
