PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(8 December 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many major procurement programmes have capability gaps due to the speed of their delivery.

Asked by:
James MacCleary (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The Ministry of Defence takes a rigorous approach to manage risks arising from capability gaps, ensuring that we are able to deliver defence's strategic and operational tasks. It is important to guard against the threat of adversary data aggregation of gaps in UK military capability, so it would be inappropriate to comment further.
