Order. A court order today's House of Commons Defense Committee evidence session on the impact of the delay to the defense investment plan on defense industry. It's also a pleasure to welcome two of our colleagues from the public account committee, namely the PAC chairs, Jeffrey Clifton Brown, and also a a warm welcome to Chris Cain, first time you've been guesting on the defense committee. So looking forward to your contributions. I'm also very, very pleased to welcome our esteemed panel for today, Samira Braun, who is the defense director at ADS Group.
And also we have with us Arnab Dutt, who is a policy champion for procurement and social value at the Federation of Small Businesses. And a warm welcome again to Andrew Kinneberg, who's the director general at Make UK Defense. And also, a warm welcome to Fred Sugden, who is the associate director at the defense and defense and national security for Tech UK. But we've we've got an hour for this part of the panel before we move on to the second panel. So my request to members as well as to panelists is please be as concise as possible with the questions, but also with your responses as well because there is quite a lot of ground to cover.
