Jim Shannon – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Ministry of Defence

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jim Shannon on 2015-11-30.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will take steps to ensure that marines who attended a demonstration at Downing Street in respect of Marine Blackman are not subject to disciplinary procedures.

Mr Julian Brazier

Disciplinary procedures against any member of the Armed Forces are a matter for the relevant Service and it would be inappropriate for any Minister to interfere in such a process.
