Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 April 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Defence in the UK.
Defence in the UK
Does the hon. Gentleman agree that something that the Veterans Agency, the Ministry of Defence and the Government must look at is the number of ex-servicemen who end up in prison? I was shocked the other day by a letter that said that the Government do not know how many ex-servicemen are serving a prison sentence? Does he think that we should look at that to see whether the cause is possibly related to military service, which has led to those people being in prison?
