Written Question
Veterans
Wednesday 26th November 2025

Asked by: Lord De Mauley (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask His Majesty's Government to what extent the Veterans Strategy, published on 10 November, applies to reservists.

Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence)

The Veterans' Strategy applies to all those who have previously served in HM Forces, Regular and Reserve. The Strategy is an important milestone in this government's work to renew the UK's contract with those who serve and have served.

It resets the narrative around the remarkable men and women who have served in our Armed Forces, ensuring all veterans' service is celebrated, their potential to make further contributions is realised and, for those that need it, that the right support is available to them.

The strategy is aligned with key Ministry of Defence priorities, the Strategic Defence Review and the extension of the Armed Forces Covenant, together with the government's wider Plan for Change.
