P-8 Poseidon Aircraft to be Stationed at RAF Lossiemouth
The motion
That the Parliament notes the UK Government’s defence investment of £400 million in RAF Lossiemouth, with the base becoming home to nine P-8 Poseidon aircraft from 2020 onwards; understands that this investment in the Moray economy will create extra jobs, including 500 on the base alone, and welcomes the news that, in recognition of the importance of the county to the RAF and the strong historical relationship that the area has with the armed forces. the first of the aircraft will be named "Pride of Moray".
