Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what role they are considering for the use of off-board systems as part of the UK's Mine Counter Measures capability.
This question was answered on 15th March 2016
I refer the noble Lord to the answer I gave on 8 March 2016 to Question number HL6439, in which I noted that the Royal Navy recognises the operational benefits of unmanned off-board systems. The application of such systems to mine countermeasures capability (MCM) will be included in the Royal Navy's considerations.
