Bomb Disposal: Northern Ireland

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, on how many occasions bomb disposal units have been deployed to an incident in Northern Ireland in each of the last three years where the incident was more than 40 miles from their usual base.

Answer

I am withholding the information as its disclosure would, or would be likely to, prejudice the capability, effectiveness or security of the Armed Forces as it may assist in the calculation of transit times for teams deploying bomb disposal units.
