The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to expand signal jamming practice for armed forces personnel.

Answered by Luke Pollard

The Ministry of Defence is not taking any additional steps to ‘expand’ its ability to enable Armed Forces personnel to practice jamming signals, It is not appropriate to go into details for operational security reasons. I can confirm beyond the that there are extant procedures that exist to enable jamming for testing, training and exercising in the UK.
