18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Can I just ask each chief, just for the record, how many victims of sexual harassment and abuse you have met in the last 12 months?

26
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Minister, coming back to your announcement today about the central violence against women and girls taskforce, which aims to drive cultural improvements, you are going to lead that. Who is leading each of the services and at what rank?

39
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

That is one.

3
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Can we move on to probably the most vulnerable group of people, which are the under-18s, and look at the Army Foundation College? Can you tell me how many complaints have been made about bullying, sexual harassment or assault in the last two years?

44
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Do you not think that you should know, given that it is in the report? Given that you were coming here today, you do not know that.

What about the Navy in terms of in terms of abuse and harassment complaints made by young people, new recruits and those in training?

24
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

My question is in terms of new recruits. Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton: How many new recruits who are under 18, or how many new recruits?

27
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

How many complaints have been made by under-18s about sexual harassment or abuse? Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton: I am not aware of any complaints made by under-18s. There are about 140 under-18s in our system in the Royal Air Force. I am not aware of any complaints.

49
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

I do not mean to be rude, but we are limited for time. We have got it clear that there is still not a clear guide and that it is not automatic. Admiral, what about the Navy?

37
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

So it is not automatic if a trainer engaged in sexual banter with a trainee.

15
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Can you tell me what they were discharged for?

9
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Four in the last—

4
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

How many have been discharged?

5
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

Sorry, but I want to be specific. There must be somebody who you want to drive this for each single service to work together as part of your taskforce, so I am asking at what level.

36
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

I may be confused and perhaps it is a shortcoming on my part.

13
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

I get your level. I am talking about the services.

10
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

What rank will lead each service?

6
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

When was that?

3
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

So it is working perfectly in the RAF. Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton: What I just described to you are the facts of the case.

26
18 Mar 2025Defence Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 404)

How many have been discharged in the Navy?
