Diego Garcia Military Base and British Indian Ocean Territory Bill

This bill concerns the UK's sovereignty and administration of the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT), which includes Diego Garcia, a strategically important military base used by British and US forces. The bill addresses the legal status of BIOT and potentially responds to international pressure, particularly from Mauritius, which claims sovereignty over the territory. The specific measures would clarify or reaffirm the UK's governmental authority over BIOT and its use for military purposes, though exact provisions depend on the bill's final wording.
