Ministry of Defence

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, where the Royal Regiment of Scotland will have its (a) headquarters and (b) museum; what plans he has for the current Scottish Regimental Headquarters and museums.

Answer: Annabelle Ewing: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) where the Royal Regiment of Scotland will have its (a) headquarters and (b) museum; [212108] (2) what plans he has for the current Scottish Regimental Headquarters and museums. [212109] Mr. Caplin: The future location of the regimental headquarters of the Royal Regiment of Scotland is yet to be determined. There is likely to be a study on how the Scottish museums can best represent the antecedent regiments and the new regiment. It is too early to provide definitive advice on the future arrangements for these museums.
