<p>As stated in paragraph 4.72 of the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review:
"Work continues to determine the optimum life of the UK's existing nuclear warhead
stockpile and the range of replacement options. A replacement warhead is not required
until at least the late 2030s, possibly later. Given lead times, however, a decision
on replacing the warhead may be required in this Parliament or early in the next."
The Government will inform Parliament of its intended approach in due course.</p>
