Military Covenant
On the 17th May, I attended Defence Questions in the House of Commons to listen to the Secretary of State for Defence introduce the Governments plans to enshrine the Military Covenant into law. I asked the Minister, to consider that the future supply of prosthetics, wheelchairs and mobility aids be included in any review of the Covenant. I mentioned one of my constituents Sergeant Gavin Harvey, who two years ago lost his legs in a land mine incident but has now become a brilliant ambassador for the ABF Soldiers' Charity. We should never forget to support such brave people in the Armed Forces and I wholeheartedly endorse proposals to put the Military Covenant into law.
