Nuclear Submarines
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what plans his Department has for the construction and operation of a facility to fabricate the fuel rods for four replacement ballistic missile submarines; and what the projected cost is of these plans.
- Answer
-
The Ministry of Defence is considering options for future fabrication of submarine reactor cores, including construction of a new facility or update of the existing facility. I am withholding the estimated cost of any investment in the facility, operation of the facility and manufacture of reactor cores for replacement ballistic missile submarines on the grounds that disclosure may prejudice contract negotiations with industry.
