Armed Forces Covenant (Duty of Public Authorities) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill makes it a legal requirement for public authorities to support the Armed Forces community (serving personnel, veterans, and their families) in their work. Currently, support is voluntary; this bill would turn the Armed Forces Covenant into a binding legal duty that organisations must follow.

Presented by Gavin Robinson.
