Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Stephen Crabb and Gavin Williamson

Monday 5th March 2018 Commons Chamber

[Stephen Crabb (Preseli Pembrokeshire) (Con)]

Does my right hon. Friend agree that the further set of defence commitments reached by the Prime Minister and President Macron at the summit in January represents not just the deepening of this important bilateral relationship, but a strengthening of NATO?

[Gavin Williamson]

The co-operation that our country has with France is second to none. The Anglo-French summit signposts an important development in that relationship—not just in terms of operations going forward, but about how best we can collaborate in terms of our defence industries.
