My hon. Friend touches on such an important issue: looking after our veterans, in particular those who are homeless or who feel isolated. The Secretary of State moved forward with a 24/7 support helpline and is launching a new veterans strategy, which will be announced in November. It is important that every local council takes responsibility for having an armed forces champion who looks after those who are homeless and identifies what help can be given.

Chippenham constituency and wider Wiltshire have a large population of military veterans who sometimes feel isolated and suffer from mental health problems. In addition to the recent and welcome announcements in this area, what more can the Department do to reassure my constituents?

I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to the hon. Member for Worsley and Eccles South (Barbara Keeley) on 26 February 2018 to Question 128962.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the estimated contribution of the Royal Welsh regiment was to the local economy where that regiment based in Wiltshire in each of the last five years.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the estimated contribution of the Royal Welsh regiment was to the local economy where that regiment based in Wiltshire in each of the last five years.
Recruits to the 1st Battalion The Royal Welsh initially attend the Infantry Training Centre at Catterick before moving to join their battalion which has been based at Lucknow barracks, in Tidworth, Wiltshire since April 2013. From this time until present, 1st Battalion The Royal Welsh manpower liability has been around 730 military posts and around 10 directly employed civilian posts. Civilian contractors also support the battalion but due to the way that these contracts are organised by region, we are unable to provide numbers.
The decision to base a Regiment in a specific location is dictated by the role, command and training requirements of the Regiment. The Ministry of Defence does not routinely undertake economic impact assessments to determine the contribution of any unit or site to the local economy, we have not made an estimate of the contribution of the 1st Battalion The Royal Welsh.

The overwhelming majority of finds in England and Wales are reported directly to Finds Liaison Officers, though in a small number of cases they are reported directly to Coroners. The Coroner will normally direct the finder to the Finds Liaison Officer. In Northern Ireland, where the Portable Antiquities Scheme does not apply, finds are reported directly to the Coroner. Only individual Coroner’s officers will hold information on cases directly reported to them.
The Treasure Act, which defines what finds are treasure came into force in 1997, and since then the following finds have been reported as treasure in Wiltshire:

I congratulate my hon. Friend on her initiative. She raises a very important point: I think it is important that we see more young people moving into engineering and pursuing careers in engineering and science more generally. The steps she is taking with our hon. Friend the Member for South West Wiltshire (Dr Murrison) are an important part of that. We do need to address those stereotypes. I am particularly keen to address the stereotype about women in engineering, because we should see more women going into engineering. If my diary allows, I would be very happy to attend her festival.

Michelle Donelan (Chippenham) (Con):
For the second year running, I am planning the Wiltshire festival of engineering, this time with my hon. Friend the Member for South West Wiltshire (Dr Murrison). We hope to inspire 3,000 children to help to challenge stereotypes of engineering careers and to combat the local skills gap. In addition, we want to highlight that Wiltshire is a hub of engineering, design and technology. Would the Prime Minister consider attending this wonderful event?
