Ministry of Defence: Equality
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what diversity, equality and inclusion targets his Department has for staff recruitment.
Answered by Al Carns
Whilst there are no Civil Service-level Diversity, Equality and Inclusion targets for staff recruitment, the Civil Service is committed to representing the diversity of the UK population. At a Departmental level, the Ministry of Defence has set a number of Levels of Ambition which, amongst other factors, aim to improve the diversity of our workforce by delivering the policy, process, cultural and behavioural changes required to maximise the talent of our people. We also have a target for civilian disability representation of 15.3 per cent by 2030.
