The statement made by Hilary Benn, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, on 5 September 2024.

I would like to thank Danny Kinahan for his dedicated work on behalf of veterans and families living in Northern Ireland.

Over the last four years, he has worked on a range of important issues that affect veterans in everyday life, including health, housing and welfare and we will continue to engage with him on these issues.

We are committed to continuing to support veterans in Northern Ireland through the Veterans Welfare Service NI and the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust.
