PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(10 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether a public sector organisation that has signed the Armed Forces Covenant may be removed as a signatory if the organisation has acted in contravention of the obligations and principles laid out in the Covenant.

Asked by:
Ian Roome (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Organisations not fulfilling their pledge can have their Armed Forces Covenant status reviewed.

Concerns should initially be raised directly with the organisation in question, by following their standard complaints process. Complaints that remain unresolved can be referred by the complainant to the relevant ombudsman.
