§ Mr. DrewTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what plans he has to allow members of the Territorial Army to become eligible for senior positions. [77068]
§ Dr. MoonieMembers of the Territorial Army already hold senior positions in the armed forces. There are currently two Territorial Army brigadier posts and one tri- service post open to one-star officers of all reserve forces. In addition, one TA officer currently holds local brigadier rank. I do not currently plan any changes to these arrangements.
