§ Mr. CohenTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence if the Aerazur/GQ 8m low-level parachute is in service with British forces; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. SainsburyNo such parachute is in service with British forces. However, initial trials to assess possible contenders to satisfy a requirement to replace the existing in-service mass drop parachute have taken place. No final decision on a future development and production contract has yet been taken.
