Nuclear Weapons

Lord Fowler Excerpts

Wednesday 25th November 2020 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Goldie (Con)]

Responding from the perspective of defence, I do not accept the premise of the noble Viscount’s question. When we are dealing with threats to security and the safety of our country and our citizens, we go down all routes—security routes, MoD roots and diplomatic routes—and they are all vital. The recent settlement offered by the Government to the MoD reflects the importance that we attach to that.

[The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)]

My Lords, the time allowed for this Question has elapsed.
