Armed Forces Covenant
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will make it her policy to strengthen her Department's compliance with the Armed Forces Covenant.
Answered by Andrew Western
The Department takes its responsibilities under the Armed Forces Covenant very seriously and is proud to continue to provide vital and significant support services for veterans which recognises their particular needs and circumstances.
For DWP, strengthening our compliance with the Armed Forces Covenant is about making sure that we have a benefits and employment support offer that meets the needs of veterans, serving personnel, and their families. DWP is fully committed to the Covenant and will do what is necessary to support members of the Armed Forces Community.
