Civil Servants: Veterans
- Question
-
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what improvements he plans to make to the Veterans’ Gateway.
- Answer
-
This Government has conducted extensive research with veterans and charities to improve the offer to the veteran community.
As a result of this feedback, we will improve access to guides and information by working with the Ministry of Defence and stakeholders to dramatically improve the information on GOV.UK. This will make content more accessible and easier to understand.
We also plan to improve referrals and signposting so veterans can make a more informed decision about where to go to seek help. This will take account of the offers available from both statutory and charitable providers.
A joint assessment with the Ministry of Defence is also underway to consider offline support, ensuring veterans receive the right help as effectively as possible.
