Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what criteria he is using to decide the future location of the Household Cavalry Regiment.

There are no plans to move the Household Cavalry Regiment from their current location in Combermere Barracks, Windsor.

A study is being conducted into the future use of the Department's central London estate, including the current location of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment in Hyde Park Barracks. Any decision to relocate the Regiment will be based on the ability to deliver alternative facilities which meet the Regiment's operational and infrastructure requirements, and the demonstration of value for money for the Defence budget.
