Mr. Roy Hughes
asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will conduct a review throughout his Department of the number and value of contracts allocated to British companies.
Mr. Norman Lamont
I have carried out a review which shows that the following orders were placed on United Kingdom contractors to the Ministry of Defence during the financial year 1984–85:
| Total | Value (£ million) | |
| Contracts including amendments placed by headquarters | 96,191 | 7,819 |
| Local purchase orders | 389,050 | 303 |
