Hywel Williams

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many cruise missiles have been used in the conflict in Afghanistan by(a) Britain and (b) the United States. [21652]

Mr. Hoon

UK submarines have launched a small number of Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles. I am withholding details of the precise number launched in accordance with Exemption 1 of the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information. The number of cruise missiles fired by the United States is a matter for them.
