NATO: Industry
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he has had recent discussions with Cabinet colleagues on taking steps to meet the NATO Industrial Capacity Expansion Pledge.
Answered by Luke Pollard
It is essential that NATO Allies ramp up their defence industrial capacity and production across the Alliance – to support Ukraine and for our own defence and deterrence. That is why we strongly support the NATO Industrial Capacity Expansion Pledge, which commits Allies to building on transatlantic defence industrial cooperation, delivering on our industrial commitment, and accelerating the growth of our defence industry.
The Ministry of Defence continues to work with colleagues across government to deliver new a Defence Industrial Strategy which will help us meet our NATO commitments, such as the NATO industrial Capacity Expansion Pledge.
