<p>Medical discharge policy is delegated to the single Services to provide each branch
of the Armed Forces the necessary flexibility to respond effectively to the unique
and varying environments in which their people are employed. While this does mean
variations between Services exist, all Service personnel across the three Services,
be they serving or veteran, are able to challenge the nature of their discharge and,
equally, are subject to timeline constraints in which to do so.</p><p> </p><p>The
delegation of medical discharge policy causes no disadvantage to our personnel (serving
or veteran) in relation to other citizens and has no implications for our ongoing
commitment to the implementation of the Armed Forces Covenant.</p>
