Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many officials were investigated under their Department's disciplinary processes in each of the last 5 years.

In this instance, ‘disciplinary process’ has been defined as a misconduct and discpline case and ‘officials’ as Civil Servants. The table below shows the total number of misconduct cases over the last five years.

The total numbers of misconduct cases that had full investigations is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
