<p>The Ministry of Defence has no plans to create an Armed Forces Association.</p><p>I
am satisfied that the interests of members of the Armed Forces as employees are suitably
represented by the Chain of Command, SSAFA - the Armed Forces Charity, 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>
