Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what information his Department holds on unidentified aerial phenomena.

In over 50 years, no sighting reported to the Department has indicated the existence of any military threat to the UK and for this reason, the MOD ceased to investigate reports of UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) in 2009. All relevant materials created and held by the MOD up to 2009 were passed to the National Archives and are available to the public. The broad term UAP may be contained within documents such as ships logs, Defence Air Safety Occurrence Reports (DASORS) or correspondence from members of the public.
