Mr Speaker
Order. If we are to make serious progress, we need rather pithier questions and answers from now on.
Sarah Newton (Truro and Falmouth) (Con)
T7. What recent assessment has the Secretary of State made of the benefit of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary cluster contract in reducing costs and improving efficiency?
Peter Luff
I am delighted to be able to tell my hon. Friend that her constituency is playing a major part in ensuring that those contracts are delivering, as it were, more for less, with much greater capability compared to previous contracting arrangements, at lower cost. I congratulate her constituents in Falmouth for the part they are playing.
