Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 November 2025

Debate

Diego Garcia Military Base and British Indian Ocean Territory Bill

Contribution

Amendments 67, 86 and 87, from the noble Lord, Lord Callanan, and the noble Baroness, Lady Goldie, concern the obligation to “expeditiously inform” Mauritius. This is a really important point. To clarify, the obligation to inform Mauritius is engaged only if an armed attack on a third state directly emanates from the base on Diego Garcia.
