Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to page 22 of his Department's guidance entitled JSP 763 Behaviours and Informal Complaint Resolution Part 1: Directive - Understanding Behaviours in Defence, published in June 2021, what is the definition of a high number in each of the additional triggers listed.

The Ministry of Defence has not set such a definition. The triggers act as a guide for Commanding Officers, enabling them to request a Level 2 climate assessment when they have concerns about an aspect of their area of responsibility. A Level 2 assessment is undertaken in two phases; a Level 1 survey is conducted and followed up by more in-depth focus groups and interviews, based on the results of the Level 1 survey and the specific concerns of the Commanding Officer.
