Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate his Department has made of the potential cost to the public purse of storing US nuclear weapons at USAF Lakenheath; and from which budget heading that funding would be drawn.
The Ministry of Defence is unable to comment on US spending decisions and capabilities, which are a matter for the US Government. It remains longstanding UK and NATO policy to neither confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear weapons at a given location.
