The Strategic Defence Review sets a path for the next decade and beyond to transform Defence and make the UK stronger both at home and abroad. The Government endorses the Review’s vision and accepts all 62 recommendations.

The implementation of the Review’s recommendations is underway. Implementation will be priority business for the Department and will be executed through a whole of UK Defence effort.

The Department will be making further announcements about land and estates in due course.
