answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/06/2023 answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) does not collect or hold data monitoring the fertility of veterans. Since 1948, it has been the policy of successive Governments that the National Health Service in England and the Devolved Administrations is responsible for healthcare provision for veterans.</p><p>The MOD does hold War Disablement Pension files which are created when an individual is either medically discharged or submits a claim under the War Pension Scheme. These can contain discharge information, medical reports, service record documentation and various administrative papers. Case papers, for example additional medical reports and claims, are then added to the file when received. However, the information within these individual paper files is not stored centrally.</p> answering member constituency South West Wiltshire answering member printed Dr Andrew Murrison question first answered 27/06/2023 12:27:10 answering member 1466 label Biography information for Dr Andrew Murrison
