The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to recommendation 25 the 2025 Strategic Defence Review, what progress he has made in developing a military and civilian career stream for international defence engagement.
Answered by Ministry of Defence
Work is underway to establish a coherent approach that will identify Defence Engagement posts, the skills required for those roles, and clearer career pathways for personnel undertaking Defence Engagement assignments. The programme is also considering training and education requirements, together with measures to improve support for personnel and families serving overseas. A Defence Engagement Steering Group has been established to oversee this work and develop a delivery plan.
