Proceeding contribution from Gemma Doyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.
Armed Forces Bill
The hon. Gentleman is making a somewhat better case than the Minister made. As he supports the principle of the amendment, I hope he might reconsider and join us in the Lobby this evening. In conclusion, I welcome the strengthening of the armed forces covenant in the Bill. It offers veterans, as well as service personnel and families, the protections that they deserve. Supporting the amendment would be an indication of the approach that the Government intend to take in moving forward in the spirit of the new legislation on the armed forces covenant.
