Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 27 June 2017 to Question 275, on RAF St Athan, when he plans to publish the impact assessment of (a) 614 RAF Auxiliary Squadron, (b) University of Wales Air Squadron, (c) 2300 Air Cadets Squadron, (d) Regional Rehabilitation Unit for Wales and the Midlands and (e) the Band of the Prince of Wales; and if he will place a copy of that impact assessment in the Library.

As part of ongoing assessment work, the impact of the potential move of 4 School of Technical Training on other units is being assessed. However, this assessment work forms part of the wider considerations around the move. At this stage it is too early to say when it will be completed or whether elements of the information contained in these considerations may preclude them being published.
