UK's Nuclear Deterrent

Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 July 2016. It occurred during Debate on UK's Nuclear Deterrent.

The Prime Minister quite rightly paid tribute to our submariners. Will she also pay tribute to the men and women working in our defence industries who will work on Successor? They are highly skilled individuals who are well paid, but such skills cannot just be turned on and off like a tap when we need them. Does she agree that it is vital for the national interest to keep these people employed?
