Armed Forces: Hearing Impairment

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what performance metrics the Davies Group are held to; and how frequently those metrics are evaluated.

Answer

The Davies Group claims management contract requires Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to be reported quarterly.
