Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 4 June 2026 to Question 1023 on HMS Bulwark: Repairs and Maintenance, what the projected net return for his Department is of the sale of HMS Bulwark.

HMS BULWARK is currently in HMNB Devonport undergoing regeneration. Regeneration costs are not yet confirmed and will be announced in due course. The cost of generating her will be offset by any agreed sales figure which we expect will represent a net return for the Ministry of Defence.
