Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to the activation of the NATO Response Force, what is the UK contributing to that force.
As a leading member of the NATO Alliance, the UK makes a significant contribution to NATO’s Response Force (NRF). The UK contribution to the NRF as a whole covers multiple domains, and currently includes the UK’s newest aircraft carrier, HMS PRINCE OF WALES, which in 2022 is acting as its 2* Afloat Command Platform.
