Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 18 July 2017 to Question 4675, if he will list the components to be manufactured at Boeing's planned factory in Sheffield that will be used in his Department's planned programmes.

The Government welcomes Boeing's announcement on 24 February 2017 to locate their first civil aerospace manufacturing facility in Europe at Sheffield. This new facility will export £80 million of actuation components a year, initially for Boeing's civil 737 commercial aircraft programmes and it is likely to play a role on the military P8 Poseidon Maritime Patrol Aircraft.
