Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between John Lamont and Johnny Mercer

Monday 2nd November 2020 Commons Chamber

[Johnny Mercer]

Well, it is veterans ID, not voter ID. The veterans ID card should have come out at the end of last year. It has been delayed. Everybody who leaves the military now gets a veterans ID card, but there are challenges in backdating it and dealing with things such as fraud. We accept that and we are working through it at the moment. I will have an update in due course.

[John Lamont (Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk) (Con)]

  Can I ask the Minister to update the House on the activities and investment that the Ministry of Defence plans for Scotland in the months ahead?
