Ministry of Defence written question – answered on 17 July 2023.
Esther McVey
Conservative, Tatton
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what recent assessment he has made of the effectiveness of the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme.
Andrew Murrison
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Defence
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is committed to ensuring that the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS) delivers for those who make a claim and there are mechanisms of assessment and accountability in place to ensure that this is the case.
The AFCS Quinquennial Review (QQR) takes place every five years to ensure the AFCS remains fit for purpose and to identify opportunities for improvement. The final report was published today:

The MOD will consider the recommendations of the AFCS QQR, and the Government's response will be published later this year.
