Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether the number of Royal Navy Frigates and Destroyers will be (a) more or (b) less than 19 in each year in the next 10 years.
I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 26 February 2020 to Quesiton 2046.
We remain committed to ensuring the Royal Navy has the ships and capabilities required to fulfil Defence commitments now and in the future.
