For this reason, it would not be practical to apply health and safety legislation that has been developed to provide safe working environments within the UK, when overseas. I would like to provide reassurance that the Ministry of Defence (MOD) does seek to comply with local health and safety standards and where these local standards fall below those expected within UK, the MOD applies UK standards so far as it is reasonably practicable.</p> answering member constituency South West Wiltshire answering member printed Dr Andrew Murrison question first answered 28/11/2023 12:38:45 answering member 1466 label Biography information for Dr Andrew Murrison
