The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when his Department plans to announce the (a) personnel requirements and (b) organisational design for (i) Op Courage and (ii) Op Restore.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

Op RESTORE and Op COURAGE are established bespoke National Health Service commissioned services for veterans. There are currently no plans for announcements to be made about personnel requirements and organisational design for Op COURAGE and Op RESTORE.

The new joint centre will take forward the Government’s ambitious reform agenda as set out in the Health Mission and Plan for Change, with more details to come when the 10-Year Health Plan is published.
