Nicholas Soames: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will publish his Department's assessment of lessons learned from the recent Libyan campaign. [199068]

Mr Francois, Minister of State for the Armed Forces: The Department has a very thorough lessons learned process which is normally applied when an operation is initiated. However, due to operational security sensitivities we do not, as a matter of course, publish the findings of such processes. We have no plans to publish any lessons learned from Op Ellamy.
