The information requested is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.

It is a requirement of Ministry of Defence Civ HR policy that all selection panels must comprise a minimum of two people, and a recommendation that all panels are diverse, with a mix of different experiences, ethnic backgrounds and should not be of a single gender.
