Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many claimants there were in each military rank of continuity of education allowance for placements at (a) Eton, (b) Charterhouse, (c) Harrow, (d) Rugby, (e) Shrewsbury, (f) Westminster, (g) Winchester, (h) St Paul's and (i) Merchant Taylors in 2018-19.

I am mindful of our obligations under the Data Protection Act and will, in due course write to the hon. Member with information which will not compromise the protections under the Act.
