Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 16 May 2022 to Question 969, on Kenya: Army, what those obvious security reasons are in the context of white phosphorus only being used for illumination and screening purposes.

The hon. Member misunderstands the response to Question 969. The security reasons referred to are not specific to white phosphorus but are instead generic to all ammunition. The UK does not share details of what ammunition is stored in any particular location.
