Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the timetable is for the procurement of general purpose frigates; and if he will make a statement.
This question was answered on 28th April 2016
We have begun the initial work to take forward the new General Purpose Frigate programme outlined in the White Paper 'National Security Strategy and Strategic Defence and Security Review 2015'. The work is in the very early stages and it is too soon to say what the procurement timetable will be.
