Women in the Armed Forces

Proceeding contribution from Emma Lewell-Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 December 2021. It occurred during Backbench debate on Women in the Armed Forces.

The Minister can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe he said that, ultimately, it can still be decided in civilian court, if that happens. Why are we keeping the courts martial if a case can ultimately be decided in a civilian court? Why do we have a two-tier system?
