Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Andrew Murrison and Richard Drax

Monday 12th December 2022 Commons Chamber

[Richard Drax (South Dorset) (Con)]

The cost of living crisis is no doubt affecting all those in the armed forces, and so, too, will the call on them to help out during all these strikes. Will the Government reward those who so generously give of their time? I know they are assigned to work over Christmas and new year, but are there any signs of some sort of reward or thank you to those who, yet again, have been called on to fill a hole?

[Dr Murrison]

My hon. Friend takes a close interest in the armed forces, and I think I can assure him that conversations on this subject are happening across Whitehall.
