Defence: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of a) the quantity and b) the origin of aluminium used in key Ministry of Defence contracts.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Department does not currently track the use of aluminium within the supply chain. Following the recent publication of the Critical Minerals Strategy, of which aluminium is included, the Department will be scoping the best way to build this into the monitoring process that are already taking place.
