Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, for what reason his Department’s criteria for faux fur replacement for the (a) King’s Guard’s bearskin and (b) Royal Horse Artillery's busby caps are different.

The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery soldiers’ busby is smaller and lighter than the King’s Guards ceremonial bearskin cap, and as such the faux fur replacement criteria differs.
