Text
I too welcome the Veterans Commissioner here today and declare an interest as a serving member of the Army Reserve. I pay tribute to the 40,000-plus service personnel and veterans here and agree with the Minister's statement. I am sure that he will agree with me about the great work that our charities and voluntary organisations do in working with veterans, particularly around mental health. Will you give an undertaking, Minister, about what your Department and the support line service will do to work to hand in glove with them to ensure full maximisation of the services that they provide?
