Interesting ... the existence of a consultation feedback survey, apparently for serving personnel, was announced on Tw@ter earlier today. Here it is ... all twelve questions ...
The New Employment Model (NEM) is the most thorough review in a generation of Service personnel terms and conditions of service (career structures, pay, accommodation, training etc).
It is vital that we get the design of the NEM right: not just in terms of ensuring value for money for Defence but crucially in delivering a package that fits with what Service personnel want and reflects the lifestyles they wish to lead. This important feedback will be used to guide the teams who are developing the policies and to provide evidence that will enable the Defence Board to make decisions on important parts of the package such as pay and accommodation. It will also help us to understand how Service personnel perceive some of the changes ahead.
A consultation on the NEM will run from June until October 2013. During this time a range of approaches will be used to understand the views of service personnel including focus groups and surveys on specific elements of the NEM.
The following questions are a starting point for you to offer your opinions on some the key features of the NEM. Please take the opportunity to give us your initial feedback now and take part in some of the other consultation activities taking place during the next few months.

Apart from the usual Radio Button prelim questions ... one wonders how all the free format responses are going to be effectively collated, analysed and interpreted :confused:
No reference to this survey on the main DC Web Site ?

Presumably our Regular Members will be aware of the survey ? The old cynic in me reminds me that these kind of feedback "opportunities" are some times pushed out in stealth mode ... I hope I'm wrong ...
