The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will publish a list of the recruitment policies that he plans to scrap.

Answered by Luke Pollard

We are ambitious in our work to review and, where appropriate, challenge previous regulations for Armed Forces recruiting. As part of this work, a number of medical entry policy revisions have been published in Joint Service Publication 950, Armed Forces Medical Policy. Additional regulations concerning eligibility requirements, plus those supporting Armed Forces recruitment processes will be revised and promulgated once finalised.
