answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/01/2020 answer text <p>The Government's policy is to defend the UK and its citizens against threats to their security. In implementing that policy the Government may draw on a wide range of tools, including, <em>in extremis</em>, the use of military force to remove such threats when there is no other effective option. If the Government does resort to the use of military force then it will act in accordance with the requirements of applicable international law and we expect others to do likewise. This applies equally to Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems or 'drones' as it does to any other military asset or weapon. All UK weapon systems are reviewed to ensure their compliance with international law.</p> answering member printed Baroness Goldie question first answered 21/01/2020 14:54:35 answering member 4306 label Biography information for Baroness Goldie
