Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment the Joint Terrorist Analysis Centre, Royal Navy Fleet Intelligence, MI5 and MDP special branch have made of threats to security at HMNB Clyde and RNAD Coulport; what those threats are in order of the likelihood of them occurring; and what steps are being taken to address those threats.

The Ministry of Defence works closely with wider national police, security and intelligence organisations, including the Security Service, to ensure it maintains effective protection for all defence assets against a range of threats. We do not comment on detailed intelligence or security measures to protect defence nuclear assets.
