Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much funding his Department has allocated to the (a) Sea Cadets, (b) Army Cadet Force, (c) Air Training Corps and (d) Combined Cadet Force in each financial year since 2010.

This information is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost. The Ministry of Defence does not directly allocate funding to Cadet forces, but instead funds are disaggregated to the single Services through the annual budget process. The single Services do not hold discrete cadet budgets and the cost of delivering and supporting cadet activity falls across a wide spread of different business areas, agencies and organisations.
