Written Question
USA: Military Bases
Thursday 21st March 2024

Asked by: Douglas Chapman (Scottish National Party - Dunfermline and West Fife)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he has had recent discussions with his US counterpart on the (a) provision and (b) location of further bases for US (i) personnel and (ii) equipment in the UK.

Answered by James Heappey

The US is the UK's principal defence and security partner. UK Ministers and officials speak regularly with US counterparts to ensure coherence and alignment between our two nations, including on the footprint of both the US forces based within the UK, and the UK military presence in the US. Together, we regularly discuss and review our military footprint requirements.

The US military presence in the UK is part of its strategic posture within Europe, providing assurance and deterrence for NATO, and is a visible demonstration of the continuing strength of our bilateral relationship.
