Ajax Vehicles: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, who holds the role of Senior Safety Responsibility Officer for the delivery of the Ajax Programme.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Senior Responsible Owner (SRO) for the Armoured Cavalry Programme is Mr Chris Bowbrick.
The Senior Safety Responsible Officer position within Defece Equipment and Support is filled by a Senior Professional Engineer. As a former Defence Minister he will recall that it is not Ministry of Defence policy to name Civil Servants below Senior Civil Service 1* grades. It is however, worth noting that the Armoured Cavalry Programme SRO is formally accountable for the overall safety of the programme.
