uin	188743
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>As stated in the Defence Equipment Plan 2018, the Ministry of Defence has secured sizeable cost savings on the Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft (£207 million), Apache Capability Sustainment Programme (£132 million) and Type 26 frigates (£104 million). These are the result of efficiencies identified and realised by Defence Equipment and Support through transformation initiatives. In particular, on the Poseidon Maritime Patrol Aircraft, negotiations with the US Navy and Boeing achieved savings on the aircraft and the initial provision of capital spares. On Apache, economies of scales were achieved through negotiating combined requirements with the US Army and Boeing. And for Type 26, savings were achieved through using improved project control and commercial skills to adopt a much stronger negotiating strategy.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 14/11/2018 16:08:11 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to his Ministerial Statement of 5 November 2018, HCWS1064 on the Defence Equipment Plan, what proportion of the allocated budget shortfall in the four years from 2018-19 is due to the decision to reprofile the Dreadnought programme and bring forward spending.

uin	188747
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>On the basis of a review in summer 2017, detailed cost forecasts were developed for procurement and support programmes managed by the Defence Nuclear Organisation. This included the Dreadnought programme where re-profiling provided opportunities to drive out cost and risk later in the programme to ensure it remains on schedule and within its £31 billion estimated cost. I am withholding the specific information requested as its release would prejudice the commercial interests of the Ministry of Defence.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 12/11/2018 16:52:27 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
