Written Question
Armed Forces
Monday 19th February 2024

Asked by: Steve Tuckwell (Conservative - Uxbridge and South Ruislip)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to recognise the contribution of armed forces personnel.

Answered by Andrew Murrison

The largest pay increase in more than 20 years is indicative of the Government’s commitment to our Armed Forces. In addition we will continue to support public facing events such as Armed Forces Day, and respond to concerns from the Defence community on issues like medallic recognition.
