DDS considering move from GHQ

The DDS are considering a radical departure from their existing estate strategy which would entail closing GHQ (and selling off the land) and opening a new GHQ on Proxima 4. These plans have come to light since the near disaster at GHQ following a plane crash, although the DDS are going to move their nuclear fuel storage from GHQ anyway they are now considering moving the nerve centre of the DDS completely. One major reason for the idea is an interim valuation of the land which GHQ occupies of 17.3 billion zarks. The current plans being considered entail:

• Moving command, crisis management and data processing to a new facility on Proxima 4. The planet can sustain life though is fairly marginal and thus the new GHQ would require an enclosed environmental sphere. This however would aid security in many ways, the proximity of GHQ to Hexian City has always caused problems in this area. A new orbital station would become the new DDS transport hub.
• Non-military departments, like DDS Payroll & HR Services, would remain on Proxima 7 but move to commercial offices across the planet.
• Weapon and waste storage would move to new facilities on Proxima 7's moon Luna.
• A new airbase would be built at Hexian City's airport for air defence and transportation needs.

A decision on whether to proceed with early planning to more structured and details plans will not be made until the new year.
