Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department has plans in place to impose lockdowns on UK military bases overseas in the event of a surge in covid-19 cases in those areas.

We continue to monitor the risk of COVID-19 outbreaks in our overseas bases and host nations, and have plans in place to manage any outbreaks while prioritising the safety and welfare of our people and maintaining key Defence outputs.
