Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the costs of training cadets from outside the UK have been at each officer training establishment in each of the last five years.
International defence training is an important part of our international defence engagement strategy, which seeks to use our national capabilities to extend the influence of the UK in the world.
