To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether the Type 31 frigate is able to undertake NATO operations.
This question was answered on 30th November 2020
Flexible and adaptable by design, the Type 31 general purpose frigate will undertake missions such as interception and disruption of those using the sea for unlawful purposes, intelligence collecting, defence engagement and assistance to those in need. It is expected that Type 31 frigates will routinely deploy to conduct enduring tasks such as NATO Standing Maritime Groups, as well as contributing to maritime response and contingent operations.
