I am quite happy to listen to the hon. Lady’s four pages of speech but her colleagues behind her will be complaining if that happens.

I look forward to hearing how we will get full transparency and accountability on that money. Those organisations do valuable work and there is a commitment from all parties that they should be supported. They do not get thanked enough, so I would like to put on the record—I am sure every hon. Member present would—my thanks to the organisations that do a fantastic job on behalf of our armed forces.
