Defence: Manufacturing Industries
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to ensure that defence manufacturers receive business support to (a) promote job growth and (b) enhance defence capabilities.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Government is committed to supporting defence manufacturers through targeted business support programmes, including funding, innovation grants, and skills development initiatives. We will work closely with industry partners to promote job growth and ensure the UK’s defence capabilities remain cutting-edge and resilient. This involves fostering collaboration between manufacturers to sustain a strong, competitive defence sector.
