On 22 January 2018, the ITRE Committee held a public hearing on the future of defence industrial policy.

The hearing focused on the current Commission proposal on the European Defence Industrial Development Programme. This is one of the building blocks of the European Defence Fund and should be the forerunner to programmes in the next MFF to support defence industrial development and defence research.
