Debate

Armed Forces Bill

Contribution

The armed forces ask much of those who serve and their families. New clause 4 recognises the sacrifices made by those military families, and new clauses 9 and 11 seek to address a long-standing concern about the legal environment in which our armed forces operate. The provisions proceed from the same objective: that those who serve this country deserve neither special favours nor exemptions, but a Parliament prepared to recognise the unique burdens that service imposes.
