Proceeding contribution from Bob Ainsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 April 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Reserves (Review).


Reserves (Review)

The hon. Gentleman is right that funding for equipment is important. People want to be properly equipped when they join both the regulars and the reserves but, as he knows, that is not the end of the story. The right and relevant training is key to the offer that we make to the reserves, and that is central to the proposals in the report. ... I agree with the points that the hon. Gentleman made.
