National Security Capability Review and Modernising Defence Programme: follow up inquiry

Status: Closed Opened: 11 Mar 2019 Closed: 11 Mar 2019 1 report

Inquiry scope

The Committee is taking forward its planned follow-on examination of the National Security Capability Review (NSCR). The Government launched its NSCR in July 2017 and later a separated out ‘defence’ strand under the Modernising Defence Programme (MDP). In March 2018 the Committee published a report — ‘ National Security Capability Review: A Changing Security Environment ’, in which it considered what the NSCR should cover and the Government’s review process so far. With the Government subsequently publishing its NSCR in March 2018 and its MDP later in December, the Committee is now undertaking its planned follow-up scrutiny, looking at the results of the two strands of the Review, against the background of the Government’s 2019 Spending Review.
