Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 February 2025

Debate

Armed Forces (Court Martial) (Amendment No. 2) Rules 2024

Contribution

There were significant changes under the previous Government, which have been continued under this one, to improve the service justice system and deal with some of the concerns raised about misogyny, sexism and racism. Many of those have been dealt with internally in the service justice system. Those reviews and considerations continue. This SI makes a simple but important amendment that will help with procedures going forward. A problem was identified, and the amendment seeks to address it. As such, I hope the Committee will support it.
