Host:
Iraq Britain Business Council

UK defence policy has ambitious aims but these are causing severe and currently unresolved budgetary problems. In addition Brexit uncertainty and a fluid international situation is increasing concerns about the risks of defence overstretch, the benefits of our deterrence policy, and the sustainability of our policies for the procurement of defence equipment. Even more fundamentally, the nature of the threats that must be countered is changing in an era of information warfare. Nia Griffith MP, Shadow Defence Minister, will lead a wide-ranging discussion of how such issues should be addressed.
