Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Angus Robertson (Scottish National Party), on Monday, 7 December 2009, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 31 members in total.
ARMY CADET FORCE
That this House expresses concern at UK Government plans to cut the Army Cadet Force budget by ??4 million; believes that the army cadets are the soldiers of tomorrow and these short-sighted cuts risk the future of an organisation which has given young people a taste of military discipline and leadership for nearly 150 years; notes the UK Government's turnaround on residency rights for the Gurkhas and planned cuts to the Territorial Army; and now calls for Ministers to abandon proposed cuts to the Army Cadet Force.
