Article summary

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has published the Quinquennial Armed Forces Compensation Scheme and Veterans Welfare Reviews. The reviews provide recommendations to improve the experience of those requiring veterans’ welfare or compensation services. The recommendations from the Veterans Welfare Review focus on the roles, governance and delivery of services by government, while the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme Quinquennial Review recommendations span six areas including communications with applicants, case-working, and policy changes. The reviews were originally commissioned by the Ministry of Defence and the Office for Veteran’s Affairs, and the government is expected to publish its response later in 2023.
