Armed Forces' Leave

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence pursuant to the answer of 27 November 2006, Official Report, columns 354-5W, on armed forces’ leave, if he will ask the Defence Analytical Services Agency to distinguish in its survey estimates between leave which personnel were not able to take and that which they chose not to take.
Answer

The Survey of Leave 2005-06 does not distinguish between leave lost for service reasons and leave lost because it is carried forward to the following year. The local administrative systems do not record this difference, and the information is therefore not held.
