Compensation Claims (Injured Veterans)
- Question
-
What recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of resources available to process compensation claims for injured armed forces veterans.
- Answer
-
We have taken on extra staff, including five accredited doctors, to make sure that we process complaints and cases quickly. On the armed forces compensation scheme, I assure the hon. Lady that 100% of the cases of those with the most serious injuries are cleared within 20 days. We are making good progress; I have the full figures available to me, and I will share them with her.
