Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the total level of financial investment has been in the design and construction of the heavy replenishment-at-sea demonstration at HMS Raleigh and whether that system will be used to supply the Queen Elizabeth-class carriers.

I am withholding the level of financial investment in the Heavy Replenishment-At-Sea (HRAS) Demonstrator at HMS Raleigh as its release would prejudice commercial interests.

It is intended that bulk stores and ammunition for the Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carriers will be replenished by a HRAS system.
