Proceeding contribution from Bob Russell (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 October 2009. It occurred during Urgent question on Territorial Army.


Territorial Army

The Minister says that no TA soldiers will be deployed to Afghanistan unless they have been on pre-deployment training. Does he accept that a large number of TA soldiers may choose to walk away because of these spending cuts, so there will be fewer soldiers to go on pre-deployment training in any case?
