The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what was the total value of non-contractual severance payments across the department in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

Answered by Louise Sandher-Jones

I refer the hon. Member to the response provided to Question 121694 on 25 March 2026 to the hon. Member for South Holland and The Deepings (Sir John Hayes).
