Proceeding contribution from John P Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Defence in the UK.


Defence in the UK

I am sure that the whole House supports the offer in the Command Paper to which the Minister referred. However, does the Minister agree that the new training regime to be introduced by the defence training rationalisation programme, which will ensure that all technical qualifications in the military will also be recognised civilian qualifications, will greatly enhance the recruitment and career prospects of our young men and women when they leave the forces?
