Defence Spending

Asked if the Prime Minister had any response to the request for an increase in defence spending, the PMS replied that there had been quite a significant increase in defence spending. This meant that there would be an additional £7.7 billion over the Spending Review period by 2011. This continued the longest period of sustained real growth in planned defence spending since the 1980s. Defence spending had increased in real terms each year since 1999.
