Liberal Democrat — Epsom and Ewell

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 January 2026

Debate

Armed Forces Bill

Contribution

Does my hon. Friend agree that the Bill requires the provision of further clarification and detail in regard to service justice? If an offence is committed overseas on a base or during an operation, will a person have a choice between a civilian and a military court hearing? If an offence is discovered after six months, will it still be possible to investigate it, and if so, will it be investigated by military police or not?
