Dave Doogan
Shadow SNP Spokesperson (Defence)
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many and what proportion of military personnel are based in Scotland.
Andrew Murrison
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Defence
The number of Military personnel based in Scotland as at 1 January 2023 is 15,480. This represents 8.7 per cent of military personnel. The figures are rounded to the nearest ten and based on the stationed location of Service personnel and not their location of residence because where personnel work is not necessarily where they live.
