Defence in the UK

I welcome the Minister’s helpful intervention. There is a problem—I am glad that the Government are examining it and I hope that we can speed up the process. I have made, briefly, the points that I wanted to stress. I appreciate that mental health services are the Cinderella of the NHS, but there is a problem for those who serve abroad and need support. I told the Marines to whom I spoke that I would raise the matter before Ministers. I hope that they will reflect on how we can further improve support for our brave men and women who serve on the front line.
