6% Claim within part 2 of Overseas Operation bill 2021
Dear Ministry of Defence,
How many troop/veteran claims for personal injury did MOD settle in the 7 years prior to New Overseas Operations Bill (2021). Please give figures for each individual year. If you could also provide that data for how many of those claims were made post 6 years of diagnosis.
Could you Provide the calculation used to get to 'Only up to 6% of claims would be stopped' if Part 2 of Overseas Operations Bill would gain Royal Assent.
Johnny Mercer's claim in both houses during ping pong. Just in case you need to ask him how he arrived at his 6% figure.
Were the 'Live' Gulf War claims part of this calculation?
If not. Why not?
Regards,
Gavin Roberts

Dear Mr Roberts,
Your email of today has been passed to the Information Rights Compliance
Team as you have requested an internal review into the handling of your
Freedom of Information request, reference FOI2023/14310. We note that
this response was issued on 21 December 2023. As advised in the response
itself, requests for an internal review should be submitted within 40
working days of the response being issued. Unfortunately, your request for
a review has missed this deadline, being submitted some 11 months after
the response was issued. You are therefore out of time for such a
request.
We note that you claim it took this Department "a year to respond to a
simple request". The handling record shows that you made your request on
22 November 2023 and that you received a response on 21 December 2023; the
latter thus met the requirement of section 10 of the Act to respond within
20 working days of receipt.
Yours sincerely,
MOD Information Rights Compliance Team
