Ministry of Defence Police: Recruitment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps his Department is taking to recruit new officers to the Ministry of Defence Police.
Answered by Al Carns
There are currently recruitment and retention issues affecting policing nationally. To counteract this, we target our recruitment campaigns in locations facing the most acute recruitment challenges, and we use a variety of outreach methods to promote opportunities to join the Force, including social media; events; briefings; and our recruitment website. Recruitment levels are kept under constant review and are driven by Defence requirements and operational need.
