HC Deb 06 July 1983 vol 45 c123W
Mr. Soames

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he is satisfied that the armed services have sufficient practice with the firing of live ammunition; and what was the cost in the last year of such training.

Mr. Stanley

I am satisfied that the armed services have sufficient practice with the firing of live ammunition to maintain their proficiency. The cost of such training is not readily avilable and can be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
