Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much and what proportion of defence procurement on services and equipment was from firms operating or based in Banff and Buchan constituency.

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) regularly publishes expenditure with UK industry, broken down by both UK region and industry group.

The latest bulletin on MOD regional expenditure can be found at the following link:

The MOD does not report on expenditure data by constituency, as the data is of insufficient quality to produce accurate estimates at this level.
