Nuclear Weapons: Security
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps are being taken to maintain the security of the UK’s nuclear deterrent.
Answered by Luke Pollard
For reasons of national security, I cannot provide details of how we secure the UK’s nuclear deterrent. The UK’s nuclear deterrent is subject to a comprehensive security regime that is in turn subject to rigorous oversight and assurance, alongside independent regulation by the Defence Nuclear Security Regulator.
