Defence Equipment: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his planned timetable is for publishing the next Equipment Plan.
Answered by Maria Eagle
In light of the Strategic Defence Review and Spending Review we will not be publishing our Equipment Plan publication this year - and the NAO will not be producing their report either.
This Government is committed to improving transparency, including around affordability and financial management, and this will guide our plans for future reporting.
