Asked by:
Alison Hume (Labour)

Answer

I recognise the urgent need to transform the way we support our people and their families. The men and women of our Armed Forces and those who support them are at the heart of our Defence planning. Since July this Government has delivered the largest pay rise for the Armed Forces in over 20 years and have committed to strengthening the Armed Forces Covenant by bringing it into law.
