Proceeding contribution from Michael Fallon (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 July 2017. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Counter-Daesh Update.
Counter-Daesh Update
I am grateful for the tribute that the hon. Gentleman paid to our armed forces. He will have heard what I said earlier about the issue of medallic recognition for personnel who served in this particular campaign. We have no plans to cut the size of the Army; indeed, in our manifesto we made a clear commitment to maintain the size of our armed forces.
