Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate his Department has made of the response time of the Quick Reaction Force to an emergency in Jordan.
This question was answered on 9th March 2016
We have not made a formal estimate of the Quick Reaction Force's (QRF) response time as the capability remains in development. The response time would vary according to the nature of the emergency. However, in recent exercises the QRF has been able to deploy independently from its barracks in Jordan within 24 hours.
