Bill: 2097 Defence Review: New Chapter (II - armed support for police)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Covenanters (IA)
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2099
Description[?]:
| Whilst the 2097 Defence Review recognised the existence of asymmetric threats, it did not fully cater for them, and we therefore looked again at our defence posture and plans. The Armed Forces can play a role as part of a cross-Government and international effort to counter the threat from international terrorism at home and to engage it overseas. New elements and capabilities are needed to seize what may be fleeting opportunities to engage terrorists, to deal with them in remote areas and cater for their possible acquisition of CBRN devices. We need to look further into how we should allocate the investment which is needed, including, for example, to intelligence gathering, network-centric capability. The significant additional resources made available to Defence in the 2097 Review will enable us to take this forward with the urgency that it demands. |
