<p>No decision has yet been made. Cross Government consultation is in progress and
we expect to finalise the details of the deployment soon. The UK has enduring interests
in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region and the Royal Navy has maintained a near persistent
presence there for a number of years, conducting numerous activities promoting security
and defence relationships with our partners and upholding the Rules Based International
System. Building on this, the Royal Navy intends to continue to operate across the
region, including in the South China Sea.</p>
