Nuclear-powered Submarines
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty's Government when they will publish the report on the collision between the British and French nuclear submarines in the Bay of Biscay in 2007.
- Answer
-
There was no such collision in 2007. The report on the collision between HMS "Vanguard" and FS "Le Triomphant", which happened in 2009, contains highly classified operational detail concerning the United Kingdom's nuclear deterrent, and so, for reasons of national security, it will not be published.
