Before the start of the World Peace Conference, UNIT was put in charge of the Thunderbolt's disposal at the bottom of the ocean. 
This was interrupted by the reappearance of and a riot at Stangmoor Prison, of which the Master took full charge. He planned to use escaped convicts to hijack the Thunderbolt and fire it at the Peace Conference, therefore starting World War III.
