Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, when the decision was made to move the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment from Fulwood, Preston.
"Better Defence Estates" is a military-led plan as part of the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review.
The sites for disposal announced by my right hon. Friend, the Defence Secretary on 7 November 2016 as part of the Better Defence Estate Strategy, were approved by the respective single Service Chiefs before the strategy was agreed by the Defence Board on 30 September.
