Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether Armed Forces Careers Offices prioritised (a) BAME and (b) female candidates for RAF computer based aptitude tests between 26 October and 23 November 2020.
The Royal Air Force has instigated a Non-Statutory Inquiry (NSI) which is looking at its historical recruiting culture. The NSI is due to conclude early next year, therefore, it would be inappropriate for me to comment further while this is ongoing.
