To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of the statement by the Chief of Staff of the US Army that he was very concerned by the UK's defence budget.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many nationals of the United States are domiciled in the UK; and how many of those nationals have received visas to work (a) in the banking sector and (b) elsewhere in the financial services sector.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many nationals of the United States are domiciled in the UK; and how many of those nationals have received visas to work (a) in the banking sector and (b) elsewhere in the financial services sector.
The Home Office does not hold data on the number of US nationals who are
domiciled in the UK. The concept of domicile is not linked exclusively to a
person’s immigration status, nor does the fact that a person is deemed to have
domicile in the UK necessarily mean that they are currently present in the UK.
Information on those domiciled in the UK is a matter for HM Revenue and Customs

The US authorities provided our Security and Intelligence Agencies with limited sight of some sections of the executive summary prior to its publication.
Our Agencies highlighted a small number of issues in the proposed text where changes would be necessary solely to protect UK national security and intelligence operations. None of these redactions related to allegations of UK
involvement in detainee mistreatment.
I am advised that we did not lobby, at any level, to have information removed or redacted in relation to UK involvement in rendition or mistreatment of detainees. The UK government did not receive a copy of the report before publication
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what contracts have been placed for launch tubes for sea-launched Trident nuclear missiles with General Dynamics Electric Boat Company in the US.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what contracts have been placed for launch tubes for sea-launched Trident nuclear missiles with General Dynamics Electric Boat Company in the US.
The missile tubes for the Successor Programme are being procured as part of the collaborative Common Missile Compartment (CMC) project with the US. General Dynamics Electric Boat has been awarded an $83.8 million contract modification by the US Department of Defense to continue development of the CMC.
The contract provides funding for 17 missile tubes; four for the US submarine programme, one for a US shore test facility and 12 missile tubes for the Successor Programme. The 12 UK missile tubes’ share of this contract is estimated at $59 million. Costs beyond the first 17 tubes have yet to be agreed, and it would prejudice commercial interests to estimate costs at this stage. The Ministry of Defence is not planning to commit to further missile tubes prior to Main Gate in 2016.

The Government will not publish the correspondence requested due to the potential harm to UK interests. The UK corresponds with US partners on a range of matters of mutual interest, and disclosure of the information requested would risk prejudicing our relationship with the US and our ability to promote and protect British interests. Disclosure of this correspondence would also risk inhibiting the quality and value of such international discussions in the future.
