Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Liam Fox (Conservative), on Tuesday, 15 December 2009, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 28 members in total.


MEDICAL DISCHARGE BOARDS

That this House welcomes the recent willingness of the armed forces to adapt work to accommodate injuries and illnesses of their personnel; notes the potential advantages of unifying the medical board procedures of the three armed forces; hopes that free and open dialogue conducted in an unintimidating and informative environment will characterise the boarding process so that the right decision for the individual and organisation is reached; and urges the Government to do all it can to facilitate a smooth transition to civilian life of good quality for those who are not retained in the armed forces.
