Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many meetings Ministers in his Department have held with stakeholders on potential Type 31e exports in the last 12 months; and on what dates those meetings were held.

Ministry of Defence (MOD) Ministers have regular engagement with stakeholders across Government and with our industry partners concerning potential Arrowhead 140 (AH140) export opportunities. MOD and UKDSE continue to actively support UK industry in pursuit of AH140 export orders.

All Ministerial meetings with industry partners are published on GOV.UK in quarterly transparency returns as part of the Government's commitment to publishing transparency information.
