Nothing new here, it is laid out in the Conservatives Manifesto
A New Covenant For the Armed Forces and Their Families: The Conservative Armed Forces Manifesto 2010
I hope that anyone in the miltary that voted for the Tories read this and compared it with the alternatives before casting their vote.
Key commitments are:
Strategic Defence Review
Reduce MOD running costs by 25%
Reform of procurement structure and process
Introduce a formal Military Covenant
Double OA for those in Afghanistan
(though it doesn't say when from
)
Maximise R&R so that it starts when the individual arrives in the UK.
An effiiency review to accellerate the refurbishment of armed forces accn.
Extra school support for Service children
Review the issuing of medals
You forgot to add Public Sector Pay Freeze and urgent review into Pensions.
