HC Deb 05 March 1992 vol 205 cc283-4W
Mr. Foulkes

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the requirement for RAF air defence Tornado crews to be trained at Goose Bay, Canada; and what is the additional cost of providing the training at that location.

Mr. Kenneth Carlisle

A number of air defence crews will deploy from time to time to Goose Bay to carry out tactical training in association with RAF and other allied aircraft undertaking low-flying training at the base. The additional cost of providing air defence training for crews at Goose Bay cannot readily be identified.
