Andrew asked the Deputy Prime Minister the following question in Question Time.

“Minister the decision to recategorise Rifle Company Butterworth is welcome.

But other deployments remain in dispute, for example British Commonwealth Occupation Forces, Operation Astute, Operation Habitat and UN observers during the Lebanese civil war.

And anyone challenging disputed categorisations gets the right royal runaround from Defence who made the original decisions and refuse to admit they got it wrong. So Minister, will you finally address this and establish a genuinely independent merits-based review?”
