Ministry of Defence

Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 February 2018. It occurred during Estimates day on Ministry of Defence.

I am grateful for that.

Given our commitment to spend 2% of GDP on defence, as is required of NATO members, which most NATO countries ignore, we will have to spend more on defence regardless, in order to keep with up that target. That is the challenge we face.
