The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, where the Cyber and Electromagnetic Command will be (a) headquartered and (b) otherwise located.

Answered by Luke Pollard

On Monday, 2 June 2025, the Strategic Defence Review confirmed the establishment of a new Cyber and Electromagnetic Command, within Strategic Command.

Currently, the UK Strategic Command Transformation team is working on the detailed design for the Cyber and Electromagnetic Command, which is due to reach Initial Operating Capability by the end of 2025. The locations of the Cyber and Electromagnetic Command and other units that fall under this will be confirmed in due course, subject to these design considerations.
