Amharc ar fhreagraIn my capacity as Minister of Defence, I have not spoken formally with the UK Secretary of State for Defence, Mr. Ben Wallace MP, in the past six months. Our last formal conversation was in July of 2020.
An in-person meeting was scheduled for April of last year in London but, due to unforeseen circumstances, this meeting did not take place.
