Questions to Yellow-hatters re 406 MHz beacons

Seeking a little education, please:

1. As we now need 406 MHz beacons to automatically "hit" the Sarsats, are the RAF, Navy and Coastguard SAR fleets getting equipped with homers compatible with 406 beacons?

2. Am I correct in assuming these fleets will continue to be able to home onto the 243/121.5 beacons that still populate many LSJ's?
