No cuts: MOD denies any Parachute Regiment battalion will lose its jump status

All three regular Parachute Regiment battalions will maintain their jump status – and therefore the right to wear their wings – the Ministry of Defence has insisted.

A spokesperson refuted claims by Conservative MP and former Army officer Ben Obese-Jecty, who said he had been informed by the Government that either 2 Para or 3 Para would no longer be parachute-trained.

"These claims are incorrect – there are no plans to cut any Parachute Battalion, nor Para pay. The PQ [parliamentary question] is clear that we are continuing with current plans for parachuting," the spokesperson explained.
