PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Reserve Forces: Cardiff (24 November 2014)

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the number of completed recruitments to the Reserve Forces was from applicants residing in Cardiff South and Penarth constituency in each month since January 2011.

Asked by:
Stephen Doughty (Labour)

We have taken ‘completed recruitments’ to mean enlistments.

Of the single Services, only the Army collects data in the format requested. I will therefore provide figures for the Maritime Reserves and the Royal Auxiliary Air Force based on recruitment from the Cardiff Armed Forces Careers Office, as this is the lowest level of regional data obtainable.

Enlistments to the Maritime Reserve from the Cardiff Armed Forces Careers Office since January 2011:

Financial Year	April	May	June	July	October	November	December	February	March
2010-11	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	1	1
2011-12	1	0	1	1	5	1	1	1	2
2012-13	0	0	0	1	4	0	0	1	2
2013-14	0	4	0	3	1	0	0	0	2
2014-15	0	0	0	3	1	3	0	0	0

Enlistments to the Army Reserve from applicants residing in Cardiff South and Penarth constituency since January 2011:

Financial Year	April	May	June	July	September	October	November	December	February	March
2010-11	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	1	0
2011-12	0	0	0	1	1	4	0	0	0	4
