Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many people are in their last year of service in the TG 317.01.

There are fewer than 20 personnel within their final year of service currently deployed with the Carrier Strike Group, the majority of whom have volunteered to participate in all or part of this exciting and professionally rewarding deployment.

These personnel should not be disadvantaged by their deployment and they will undertake their full resettlement training and transition from active service upon their departure from their respective units.
