Proceeding contribution from Lord Inge (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 12 October 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.
Armed Forces Bill
I thank the Minister for that reply and the assurances that he has given. He clearly recognises our concerns. I understand why it is not possible to include the measure in the Bill. However, somehow we need to involve single service people such as the Adjutant-General, the Air Member for Personnel and the Second Sea Lord in selecting candidates so that they are confident that the person selected is someone whom they can support. I ask the Minister to recognise that this is a matter about which the services, not just noble and gallant Lords sitting in this Chamber, feel strongly. I shall withdraw the amendment, but I may wish to return to the matter on Report.
