Written question asked by Royston Smith (Conservative) on Friday, 13 October 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 17 October 2023. It was answered by Andrew Murrison (Conservative) on Monday, 23 October 2023 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Navy: Non-binary People
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what proportion of Royal Navy personnel identify as non-binary.
- Answer
-
The requested information is not held by the Ministry of Defence. The Joint Personnel Administration System (JPA) records a Service Person’s sex and sexual orientation; there is no option to record gender identity. For those who transition their gender (gender reassignment), the record for sex in JPA will be changed accordingly. That a person has transitioned their gender is not recorded.
