The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to the Defence Investment Plan, published on 30 June 2026, paragraph 62, if he will provide a breakdown of the contractual payments included within the £2.2 billion allocated to Boxer.

Answered by Ministry of Defence

The profile provided within the Defence Investment Plan represents the project forecast budget for the Mechanised Infantry Vehicle Boxer programme. A detailed breakdown of contractual payments is commercially sensitive, and disclosure would prejudice the commercial interests of the Department.
