Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many applications for a nuclear test veterans medal have been received; and how many of those medals have been issued.

As of 5 June 2023, 1,425 applications had been received and registered by the Ministry of Defence Medals Office for a Nuclear Test Medal. No medals have been issued as the medal design has yet to be finalised and production is expected to begin later this summer.
