	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2018 answer text The Strategy for our Veterans and the complementary UK Government Consultation Paper were published on 14 November and debated in both Houses on 15 November. The Consultation Paper seeks public views to inform how the Government will implement the strategy. The Scottish and Welsh Governments have made separate consultation arrangements for areas that are devolved. Following conclusion of these consultations, implementation plans will be developed by each relevant service provider, along with individual costings which will fall across Government. Once implementation options have been agreed, the resource required to implement the Strategy for our Veterans will be agreed between Ministerial Covenant and Veterans Board members, which includes the Chief Secretary to the Treasury. answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 27/11/2018 15:32:07 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
