answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/01/2022 answer text <p>The hon. Lady will have noted a similar question raised in the Topicals and in a recent PQ. The UK is committed in east, west and southern Africa, against not just the rise of violent extremism, which concerns us enormously, but also increasingly how our competitors and adversaries are using countries to develop their influence. We see that as a bad thing in the long term, and we are seeking to counter it.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Wells answering member printed James Heappey question first answered 10/01/2022 18:00:21 answering member 4528 label Biography information for James Heappey

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2017 answer text <p>HMS OCEAN is primarily a landing platform for Helicopters. Its use for disaster relief in the Caribbean was intended to supplement the capability of RFA MOUNTS BAY, which was prepositioned in the Caribbean for hurricane season and is better suited to Humanitarian and Disaster Relief operations and responded to the situation in Anguilla less than 24 hours after Hurricane Irma struck. Plans for the use of Defence assets for future disaster relief operations remain under constant reviews across Government. Any decisions to adjust plans will be informed by the cross-Government lessons learned process from the UK's immediate response to Hurricanes Irma and Maria, as well as the ongoing National Security Capability Review.</p> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 20/11/2017 17:04:08 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton

The security and stability of the UK has long depended on our strong partnerships in the Euro-Atlantic area, including NATO. Indeed, NATO remains the cornerstone of UK defence. Our European neighbours represent some of our closest friends and NATO allies, and our defence engagement with them reflects this as routine business. We exercise with them regularly to bolster our interoperability. For example, the Defence Secretary was in Tallinn last week for the opening ceremony of Estonia's NATO enhanced Forward Presence deployment, for which UK is framework nation.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 24/04/2017 15:42:52 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
