Proceeding contribution from Jayne Kirkham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 3 November 2025. It occurred during Urgent question on “Soldier F” Trial Verdict.


“Soldier F” Trial Verdict

I welcome the Secretary of State’s remarks about the professionalism, bravery and sacrifice of our armed forces, and the role that they played in Northern Ireland and across the UK. What discussions has he had with veterans, as well as the Defence Secretary and the Minister for Veterans and People, about the new protection in the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill? Is he or one of the Defence Ministers prepared to speak to veterans in Cornwall on this matter?
