<p>The Ministry of Defence has no plans for a consultation on the creation of a military
federation. I am satisfied that the interests of members of the Armed Forces as employees
are suitably represented by the Chain of Command, the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and
Families Association (SSAFA), the Royal Naval Association, the Royal Air Force Association,
the Veterans Association and a great many more Regimental Associations and groups
around the country. Many of these associations also represent the veterans' community.
Along with the various Service-facing charities, the above-mentioned associations
will all have regular access to the Chain of Command and Ministers to represent their
members' interests.</p>
