Ministry of Defence: Land
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to page 135 of the Strategic Defence Review 2025, what progress he has made in exploiting the Defence estate to generate income for the MOD.
- Answer
-
The Strategic Defence Review (SDR) sets a path for the next decade and beyond to transform Defence and make the UK stronger both at home and abroad. The Government endorses the Review’s vision and accepts all 62 recommendations.
The SDR highlights the significant opportunity to exploit the Defence estate to generate income for the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and to help meet the wider needs of Defence and the Government.
Given the scale and unique nature of the Defence estate, identifying and evaluating evolving land use requirements requires a fully considered approach.
Any land identified as part of this process will be announced in due course.
