The White Paper on defence provides the policy framework over a ten-year planning horizon. A key commitment is the introduction of a system of fixed cycle reviews to ensure policy will remain up to date. The approach is to have an update every three years and a more strategic review every six years. The first White Paper update review is under way and I understand it will be before the committee shortly. I wrote to it about it.
