![]() To put it a different way, I am a little unclear as to what she meant about the funding formula. It is a great idea, but the Minister mumbled over the question of the funding formula- I apologise: she most certainly did not mumble. I strongly support the Government’s initiative for 100 new CCFs in schools across the land. They are all equally important and we are determined to do everything we can not just to support them, but, as we have heard from Members on both sides of the House, to encourage more young people to take advantage of the benefits, opportunities and the fantastic experience that the cadets offer. We know that there are more community cadets. How much support will be given to cadet units that are not associated with schools, but that are based in the community? ![]() We also have fire cadets, a sea cadet unit is being set up on the Isle of Dogs, and I am president of the 31 Tower Hamlets air cadet training corps at Mile End.

We consulted people and I am grateful that they responded in the way that they did. We decided that we would look at the current funding so that we could make sure that we were in a position to expand. Friend update the House on the funding model for all combined cadet forces? I am proud to have 1104 Pendle squadron air cadets in Nelson and Army cadet force units in Briarfield and Barnoldswick in my constituency, but we are yet to have any cadet units in schools. That will ensure that, whatever their background or school, children will have a great opportunity to enjoy all the benefits of being in the cadets. We are on track to achieve our target of 100 new combined cadet forces in state schools by September 2015.
