Unmanned Air Systems
Asked by: Johanna Baxter (Labour - Paisley and Renfrewshire South) Tuesday 28th January 2025 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what recent progress he has made on the Protector programme. Answered by Maria Eagle - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) Protector training has now transferred to the UK having completed four aircrew basic qualification courses in the United States. Further, four Protector Air Vehicles have now been delivered to RAF Waddington, where they are being maintained by 31 Squadron engineers. The required Test and Evaluation activity and UK training is underway, ahead of the planned platform in-service declaration later in 2025.
From a broader perspective, the UK is leading the MQ-9 International Cooperation Support Partnership which now has seven participant members (UK, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Spain) and five observer nations (Greece, Lithuania, Norway, Qatar, Sweden), with an expectation of further growth. The UK is working closely with the NATO Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Force to scope options to provide Protector in support of operations in the Northern Atlantic and Arctic regions. Opportunities for NATO investment in RAF Waddington to support growth are also progressing.

Guided Weapons: Procurement

Answered by Maria Eagle - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) The programme achieved a significant milestone with the successful first SPEAR guided firing conducted at the end of 2024, demonstrating progress despite the challenges outlined in the Infrastructure and Project Authority's Annual Report 2023-24, which remain ongoing. Since the report, the programme has faced additional challenges stemming from interdependencies with international partners, requiring significant adjustments to maintain progress. The SRO, in collaboration with Defence Equipment and Support and Industry, is prioritising the development of a revised and viable baseline, which is planned to be finalised in Quarter two of financial year 2025-26. |

23 Jan 2025
Get Britain Working – Reforming Jobcentres Work and Pensions Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 3 Mar 2025) The Work and Pension Committee is conducting an inquiry into jobcentres, the first in a series of inquiries in response to the Government’s Get Britain Working White Paper. The Government has set itself a target of achieving 80% employment and is planning “the biggest reforms to employment support for a generation.” As part of these reforms, it plans to reform jobcentres, which it says are too focused on monitoring benefit compliance. The Government plans to create a new jobs and careers service, with a stronger focus on building skills and careers. In this inquiry, the Committee will scrutinise: the purpose of Jobcentre Plus, experiences of jobcentre services, how well jobcentres work with others and plans for a new jobs and careers service. Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry. |
