Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much his Department spent on liabilities arising from contract renegotiations in each financial year from 2010-11 to 2014-15.

Ministry of Defence contracts are negotiated and amended as necessary during the course of normal business. In terms of which contracts were renegotiated and the liabilities paid, I am withholding the information as its disclosure would prejudice commercial interests.
