Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many Ukrainian interpreter vacancies there are as part of the training programme for Ukrainian forces in the UK; and what assessment he has made of the potential impact of those vacancies on the timing of delivery of that programme.

The provision of interpreters to support the training programme for Ukrainian forces in the UK is delivered through an established contract. All the required services have been delivered to date. As a result, there is no impact on the timing of delivery of the programme. The situation is monitored by PJHQ and the Contractor as part of the planning and risk management process.
