Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the annual costs were of the overseas bases and facilities in (a) Singapore, (b) Bahrain, (c) Diego Garcia, (d) Duqm, (e) Falklands, (f) Ascension Island, (g) BATUS, (h) Kenya (BATUK) in the last five years; and what the cost was of improving infrastructure in each such base during that time period.

The figures cover a number of years and are being brought together from across the Department. I will write to the right hon. Member as soon as the data is available.
