Defence: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the average delay has been for major battlefield capability programmes commissioned since 2014.
Answered by Luke Pollard
We inherited considerable delays and cost overruns on a large number of defence procurement projects. We are working to address those through measures set ot in the Defence Industrial Strategy. Further announcements will come as part of the Defence Investment Plan.
