Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether the Government has begun research to create insight and understanding of public and employer’s perception of veterans, as committed to in the Veterans Strategy Action Plan, and when this research will be published.

In the Veterans’ Strategy Action Plan 2022 – 2024, the OVA laid out its commitment to promote a positive public perception of veterans.

The Office for Veterans’ Affairs commissioned YouGov in January 2022 to carry out a comprehensive research study into the public and employer’s perception of veterans. The fieldwork for this project has now been completed and the research team is in the process of drafting the final report and findings.
