HC Deb 07 March 2003 vol 400 c1247W
Patrick Mercer

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many Territorial Army reservists have(a) died and (b) been injured while on service in each of the last 10 years. [101155]

Dr. Moonie

Although work is in progress to establish a comprehensive database of deaths, the following figures come from a manual trawl of information held in the Casualty and Compassionate Cell. The figures include six Service personnel whose documentation indicates that they were serving as TA Non-Regular Permanent Staff at the time of their death. It is not possible to provide figures for injuries since this information is not recorded centrally.
