Joint Service Publication 950 Leaflet 6-7-7 (JSP 950 Lft 6-7-7) provides a framework for the medical assessment of potential recruits and serving personnel. I attach a copy for the right hon. Member's information.
Grading, deployability and fitness to serve may be dependent on several medical conditions: an individual’s final grading is determined by using the extensive content in JSP 950 Lft 6-7-7 combined with the expert judgement of occupational medicine specialists.
