Ex-Service Affairs Unit
EDM number 19 in 1996-97, proposed by Alfred Morris on 23/10/1996.
That this House mindful of the increasing needs of the United Kingdom's ageing ex-Service population and the many problems of younger members of the ex-Service community, in direct consequence of 'Options for Change', considers that there is now a pressing need for an Ex-Service Affairs Unit within an existing Ministry and with a designated Minister to be responsible, as the only fundamental and long-term solution for the care and welfare of ex-Service people and their dependants; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government now to respond positively to the Royal British Legion's urgent call for such a unit to be established.
This motion has been signed by a total of 279 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
