Mr. Portillo: Under the latest spending plans, defence expenditure will be £21,822 million in 1997-98 and £22,276 million in
1998-99. These plans reflect the Government's commitment to strong, capable and properly resourced armed forces.

Sir Fergus Montgomery: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what assessment he has made of the importance to the deterrent
capability of United Kingdom forces of spending above the European average. [18048]
Mr. Portillo: A reduction in UK defence expenditure to the current NATO European average would involve cuts of around £5 billion per
year. This would have a devastating effect on the capability of our armed forces and on their ability to deter aggression.
