Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much and what proportion of the £6.6 billion committed to research, development and experimentation over the next four years in the Defence Command Paper of 2021 has been committed to future projects.
Supplementary estimates were published on 22 February 2022 which show our current in-year (financial year 21/22) forecast of £1.5 billion on capital research and development.
