Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of the number of jobs that will be created by the Generation Tempest initiative; and where he expects those jobs to be based in the UK.
I refer the Right Hon. Gentleman to the Written Ministerial update provided by the Secretary of State for Defence on the 19 July, entitled Combat Air Strategy Update. This offers an overview of the wider benefits to the UK of Combat Air and FCAS in particular, on issues including employment and skills generation.
