I can confirm that this Department is fully engaged with industry, allies and partners to ensure that all munitions stocks granted in kind to the armed forces of Ukraine are replaced as expeditiously as possible. In tandem, further stocks of such weapons already held by the UK but maintained at a lower state of readiness are being rapidly refurbished to add to the operational stockpile. Both processes are ongoing and, for obvious reasons of operational security, it would be inappropriate to discuss timelines or numbers at this stage.
