Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much his Department has spent on procurement in each UK region, in each of the last five financial years.
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) regularly publishes expenditure with UK industry, broken down by both region and industry group.
The latest bulletin on MOD regional expenditure can be found at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/mod-regional-expenditure-with-uk-industry-and-supported-employment-201819
