Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to his Oral Statement of 25 January 2018, on his Department's Modernising Defence Programme, whether a reduction in personnel and resources in the Educational and Training Services Branch of the Army's Adjutant General's Corps will form part of that programme.

The Modernising Defence Programme will deliver the right military capability for today's, and future threats, while making sure that Defence is sustainable and affordable.

We aim to engage widely throughout the process, and to listen to a range of expert views.
