Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the answer of 21 November 2025 to question 91710 on HMS Albion and HMS Bulwark, what financial gain was made from the sale of a) HMS Albion and b) HMS Bulwark to offset against the write down of the remaining value of the vessels.

Discussions with potential international partners remain commercially sensitive, and it would not be appropriate to provide details of any prospective proceeds while these engagements are ongoing.
