Armed Forces

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of the number of serving personnel in the Army, Navy and RAF in non-front line roles.

Answer

This information is not held in the format requested and could be provided only at disproportionate cost. All Armed Forces personnel contribute to the delivery of Defence outputs, and the term 'non-front line role' is too non-specific to be the basis for precise analysis.
