	uin	45291
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2022 answer text <p>The jack is diverse piece of equipment that covers a multitude of vehicles and variants. Due to the differences in size and weight of military vehicles, which range from under one ton to over 70 tons, it would not be viable to use a single piece of equipment for all vehicles in service. Consequently there are no current plans to introduce a universal jack.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Elmet and Rothwell answering member printed Alec Shelbrooke question first answered 13/09/2022 10:26:57 answering member 3997 label Biography information for Sir Alec Shelbrooke

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2022 answer text <p>High inflation will reduce the Ministry of Defence's spending power over the Spending Review period and beyond. However, due to its volatility, a precise estimate of its impact is challenging.
