Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many Army Reserve personnel not including members of University Officer Training Corps have served for a period of over one year.

The number of Army Reserve personnel, not including members of the University Officer Training Corps, who have served for over one year is 25,780.

Figures shown are as at 1 October 2017.

Army Future Reserve 2020 (FR20) includes volunteer reserves who are mobilised, High Readiness Reserves and those volunteer reserves serving on Full Time Reserve Service and Additional Duties Commitment. Sponsored Reserves who provide a more cost effective solution than volunteer reserve are also included.

Figures have been rounded to 10; numbers ending in "5" have been rounded to the nearest multiple of 20 to prevent systematic bias.
