The below Parliamentary question was asked by Kevan Jones on 2015-10-15.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many non-UK overseas armed forces personnel have been recruited or loaned from other countries’ armed forces to serve in the UK armed forces over the last five years; and what were the countries of origin of those personnel.

Penny Mordaunt

The attached tables show the number of non-UK armed forces personnel by rank and nationality which have been recruited into the UK Regular Armed Forces.

The information in respect of the number of non-UK armed forces personnel who have been loaned by other countries will take time to collate and I will write to the hon. Member shortly.
