Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department plans to restart regular written intelligence briefings to hon. Members on the Russian-Ukrainian war.

Since the new Government was formed we have held two oral briefings for Parliamentarians on Ukraine, with a third planned before Christmas. These offered Parliamentarians the chance to be briefed and ask questions about developments in Ukraine.

Regular written intelligence assessments on the conflict will resume in the New Year.
