The motion

That the Parliament recognises the importance of Reserve Forces Day on 21 June and Armed Forces Day on 24 June 2017; commends the invaluable work reservists and regular armed forces personnel do in keeping the nation safe; believes that such occasions are an opportunity for the public to support and engage with the men and women in the armed forces who protect them and to learn about the vital work that they do, and hopes that more businesses and organisations will take the opportunity on Armed Forces Day to sign up to the Armed Forces Covenant.
