Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Ben Wallace and Lord Cryer

Monday 3rd February 2020 Commons Chamber

[Mr Wallace]

The Ministry of Defence continues to work closely with colleagues in DFID and across the Government to ensure that activity is co-ordinated and mutually reinforced in support of our national security objectives. The Government have announced that they will undertake the deepest review of Britain’s security, defence and foreign policy since the end of the cold war, and that will cover all aspects from defence to diplomacy and development.

[John Cryer (Leyton and Wanstead) (Lab)]

Given Capita’s lamentable track record—it was referred to earlier—is there any chance that the Minister will guarantee that it will not get its hands on the MOD fire and rescue service?
