Question

Asked by Lord Foulkes of Cumnock

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have received a request from, or on behalf of, the Duke of Sussex for funding for security for his family and himself; and, if so, how it is being considered.

Answer

Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint, 14 Sep 2026

The UK Government’s protective security system is rigorous and proportionate. It is our long-standing policy not to provide detailed information on those arrangements, as doing so could compromise their integrity and affect individuals’ security.
