F-35 Joint Strike Fighter

EDM number 1854 in 2005-06, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 20/03/2006.

That this House notes with concern the decision taken by the Bush Administration to withhold from the UK access to top-secret stealth technology in the new F-35 joint strike fighter; further notes the decision taken by George Bush to cancel plans for a second engine which was to be jointly built by Rolls-Royce and GE; supports the statement made by Lord Drayson, Minister for Defence Procurement, that the UK would not buy the 150 aircraft it currently plans to order unless technology transfer takes place; and calls on the Government to ensure that it continues to place the interests of the UK aerospace sector at the forefront of its negotiations with the US Administration.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
