LGBT Financial Recognition Scheme: Publicity
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to raise awareness of the LGBT Financial Recognition Scheme outside of veterans networks.
Answered by Mr Calvin Bailey
The Government continues to take a proactive approach to ensure all those affected by the Ban are made aware of the LGBT Financial Recognition Scheme, including those who may not be engaged with established veteran networks or digital communication channels.
Defence is working in partnership with local councils, the NHS, community groups, Veterans’ Commissioners, LGBT and military charities, and external communications specialist to increase awareness of the Schemes available to affected veterans. A stakeholder pack has been issued to a wide range of partners to promote the schemes.
