Armed Forces and Veterans

Question

What steps he is taking to ensure parity of support provided to (a) armed forces families and (b) veterans.

Answer

Much of the policy that impacts Service families and veterans within the UK is not owned by Defence. We work with Other Government Departments and the Devolved Administrations to ensure that, wherever possible, disadvantage associated with Service life is mitigated and effective support is provided; the Armed Forces Covenant is an especially important tool in this.
