Clyde Naval Base
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to the Defence Investment Plan, published on 30 June 2026, page 30, what progress has he made in acquiring three floating docks and infrastructure at Faslane.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Defence Investment Plan announced Programme Euston, a multi-billion-pound investment that aims to deliver resilient out of water engineering capability at HMNB Clyde. This will support all in service Royal Navy nuclear-powered submarines and assure the resilience of future maintenance of the UK’s submarine fleet.
The programme forms part of the Government's wider Clyde Transformation programme. The Clyde Transformation Programme is a multi-decade, multi-billion-pound regeneration of HMNB Clyde and the Defence Nuclear Enterprise. Detailed delivery arrangements and programme schedules are being developed, and further information will be provided in due course.
