Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Lord Morris of Manchester (Labour), on Wednesday, 23 October 1996, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 284 members in total.
EX-SERVICE AFFAIRS UNIT
That this House mindful of the increasing needs of the United Kingdom's ageing ex-Service population and the many problems of younger members of the ex-Service community, in direct consequence of 'Options for Change', considers that there is now a pressing need for an Ex-Service Affairs Unit within an existing Ministry and with a designated Minister to be responsible, as the only fundamental and long-term solution for the care and welfare of ex-Service people and their dependants; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government now to respond positively to the Royal British Legion's urgent call for such a unit to be established.
