Eleanor Laing Excerpts

Thursday 9th December 2021 Commons Chamber

Select Committee statement

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

We now come to the Select Committee statement. Sarah Atherton will speak for up to 10 minutes, during which no interventions may be taken. At the conclusion of her statement, I will call Members to put questions on the subject of the statement and call her to respond to those in turn. Front Benchers may also, of course, take part in questioning. I call Sarah Atherton to speak on behalf of the Defence Committee.
