Size Of The Fleet In Trafalgar Bicentenary Year

EDM number 398 in 2005-06, proposed by Michael Ancram on 23/06/2005.

That this House congratulates the Trafalgar 200 team at the Ministry of Defence for organising the international fleet review in the Solent on 28th June, the first fleet review since the Silver Jubilee of 1977; notes with surprise the decision to rebrand the competing fleets in the re-enacted battle as Red and Blue; regrets the Government's decision to inflict cuts in the number of frontline British warships to below the total in the modern French Navy; and calls for the effects of the cannabalisation of existing Royal Navy vessels identified in the National Audit Office Report on Military Readiness to be rectified as a matter of urgency in view of the UK's worldwide commitments in the 21st century.

This motion has been signed by a total of 63 MPs.
