Ministry of Defence: Families

Wednesday 19th September 2018

Asked by: Baroness Eaton (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many Ministry of Defence policies have been assessed against the Family Test; and whether they will publish any such assessments.

Answered by Earl Howe - Shadow Deputy Leader of the House of Lords

The Government is committed to supporting families. To achieve this, in 2014 we introduced the Family Test, which aims to ensure that impacts on family relationships and functioning are recognised early on during the process of policy development and help inform the policy decisions made by Ministers. There is no requirement for Departments to publish the results of assessments made under the Family Test.
