§ Mr. WyattTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what is the size of the existing surplus of 5001b bombs in this country; and what the cost(a) has been to manufacture and (b) will be to destroy this surplus. [94051]
§ Mr. KilfoyleThere are currently no surplus 5001b bombs in this country. However, a number of 5001b bombs which had reached the end of their initial service life, and which subsequent testing had shown to be defective, were destroyed earlier this year at a cost of around £135K.
