To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of issuing the Peltor ComTac XP/XPI to service personnel as standard.

Answer

Maria Eagle
I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on 5 March 2025 to his Question 34362. As advised, there is no ‘standard’ hearing protection therefore no assessment has been made regarding issuing the Peltor ComTac XP/XPI to Service personnel as standard.
