Notes/Caveats:<\/p>

<\/p>

  • Information is recorded by optional self-declaration. The 'Unknown' category includes those that declined to declare their ethnicity.<\/li>
  • Figures are for untrained intake of Regular Officers starting at Royal Military Academy Sandhurst (RMAS) over the past 5 financial years. The figures are for the Regular Army only, and therefore exclude Gurkhas, Full Time Reserve Service, Mobilised Reserves, Army Reserve and all other Reserves.<\/li>
  • Figures have been rounded to 10 for presentational purposes; numbers ending in "5" have been rounded to the nearest multiple of 20 to prevent systematic bias.<\/li>
  • Totals and sub-totals have been rounded separately and so may not appear to be the sum of their parts.<\/li>
  • \u201c-\u201d denotes zero or rounded to zero<\/li><\/ul>

    Steel for our major defence programmes is generally sourced by our prime contractors from a range of UK and international suppliers and that remains the case. This Government is committed to creating the right conditions in the UK for a competitive and sustainable steel industry. It publishes its future pipeline for steel requirements, together with data on how Departments are complying with steel procurement guidance at the following link:<\/p>

    <\/p>

    www.gov.uk/government/publications/steel-public-procurement<\/p>

    <\/p>

    This enables UK steel manufacturers to better plan and bid for Government contracts.<\/p>

    <\/p>

    It is too early to comment on the sourcing of steel for the Fleet Solid Support ships.<\/p>

    Since January 2019, Britannia Royal Naval College have asked cadets, on a voluntary basis, whether they went to a state or an independent school prior to joining the Royal Navy. Figures provided are based on a question asked at cadet joining interviews. Cadets are under no obligation to answer the question so the figures do not reflect 100% of the intake.
