Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what was the total number of recruits to the reserve forces in the UK for the last three years for which figures are available.
I refer the noble Lord to the answer I gave on 17 December 2015 to Question HL4348 to my noble Friend The Marquess of Lothian, which contains Future Reserve 2020 Volunteer Reserve intake for the previous three financial years.
