Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the UK share is of the EU Cooperative Financial Mechanism.
There is currently no UK share of the EU Cooperative Financial Mechanism (CFM). The CFM is a new European Defence Agency initiative and is being established on the basis that Member States shall only contribute funds on a voluntary basis. The UK has yet to make a decision on whether it will seek to remain party to the CFM in the longer term.
