Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he is taking steps to (a) create and (b) promote mutually supportive networks among LGBT+ veterans.
This question was answered on 3rd July 2023
This Government is committed to ensuring that the service of every veteran is understood, valued and recognised.
My officials and I regularly meet organisations that have created networks for LGBT veterans, and I strongly support these initiatives.
In January 2022, we commissioned an Independent Review into the impact of the ban on LGBT personnel serving in the military, and we are currently considering the Review's findings.
