The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what information his Department holds on the progress of consultations between AWE and Prospect.

Answered by Luke Pollard

I am taking a keen interest in the negotiations and continue to urge dialogue, meaningful consultation and a constructive resolution between AWE and Prospect.

The Ministry of Defence keeps AWE’s processes under regular review to support the delivery of crucial defence outputs, both now and in the future.
