Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to ensure that officials in his Department have a stronger voice across Government.
To align with the Government's vision for reform in Defence, and the Secretary of State's priority to strengthen leadership through overhauling the Defence Operating Model, we are developing options for establishing a Military Strategic Headquarters, a stronger Department of State, and the role of the National Armaments Director. Further detail will be made available in due course.
