To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he will conduct a new Strategic Defence and Security Review when the UK leaves the EU.
In the light of the rapidly changing international situation and the intensification of the threats identified in the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review, the Government is conducting a National Security Capability Review to ensure our capabilities are as effective and efficient as possible.
