Reserve Forces: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether funding for training and equipment for the Strategic Reserve will be provided in the Defence Investment Plan.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Strategic Defence Review (SDR) recommended reinvigorating the relationship with the Strategic Reserve, to be sustained through annual training and volunteer roles.
The Defence Investment Plan (DIP) will outline how we will invest to transform defence in line with the SDR vision. We are working flat out to complete the DIP and publish shortly.
