Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many and what proportion of service personnel that are due to be deployed as part of the UK's Carrier Strike Group have received a covid-19 vaccination.

Service personnel, including those deploying on the UK's Carrier Strike Group, will not be disadvantaged by their operational deployments. All deploying personnel will be offered vaccinations either in the UK or during their deployment in line with the national vaccination programme.
