## Report of the Trustees 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

This report covers the third complete financial year of the CMJ, ending on 31 March 2024. 

## Staffing: 

During this period, the CMJ was staffed by Emma Norton and Lucy Baston. We worked extensively with an independent finance officer, Stephen Povey, who provided invaluable financial and other administrative support. We had occasional clinical advice and support from an independent mental health specialist, Nicola Lester. We recruited 5 legal volunteers who have undertaken a range of discrete pieces of work for the charity. 

## Helpline/online enquiry form: 

We responded to more than 411 requests for assistance through our online enquiry form or helpline. This is almost twice as many as the 12 months preceding. 

## Case work: 

The bulk of our time was spent supporting clients with substantive casework. 

We supported the family of Gnr Jaysley Beck who died in 2021 and whose case was widely reported in October 2023. We supported the family at meetings with the Army, Wiltshire Police and with the Coroner. We assisted them to give evidence to the Army Service Inquiry into the death that produced a highly critical report, identifying serious sexual harassment and other unacceptable behaviours. 

We settled Mr Bayo's claim for religious discrimination against the Army on very favourable terms (including an apology) and supported him to undertake wider advocacy on the issues raised by his case. We worked extensively with the EHRC on the case. 

We represented a young RAF corporal who complained of sexual harassment from her line manager in an internal complaint and Employment Tribunal (ET) and settled them on favourable terms and supported her to undertake wider advocacy in support of other young women in the RAF experiencing sexual harassment. 

We settled a long standing claim on behalf of a victim of very serious sexual assault in the Army for a six figure sum. 

We supported and represent and settled for a six figure sum, a victim of extensive sexual harassment and domestic abuse in the RAF who was badly bullied following her report to the military police. 

We continued to correspond with the MoD in relation to its blanket policy of banning Service Personnel from communicating with the press or Parliament. 

We issued a judicial review challenge against the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, challenging the then Government's decision to end all investigations into deaths and atrocities occurring in the context of the Troubles. We represented and supported the bereaved family of a young soldier (Pte Tony Harrison) who was murdered by the IRA in 1991. We supported the family to undertake a wide range of advocacy on the issues and worked closely with victims in NI.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 

We won former L/Sgt Dwight Pile-Gray's case against the British Army following his claims of direct race discrimination and racial harassment and secured a good sum in compensation for him and supported him to undertake wider advocacy in support of other Black and minoritised Service Personnel. 

We supported and represented another Black sergeant who had experienced direct race discrimination and harassment from his line manager throughout the year ('D'). 

We supported and represented a Black female corporal, Kerry-Ann Knight who had experienced direct race and sex discrimination throughout the year. 

We continued to support the bereaved wife of the late Cpl Bernard Mongan as she and her children prepare for Bernie's inquest. 

A client settled her case against the RAF (following a successful finding of sexual harassment) for a significant sum (more than six figures) and the case was widely reported in the press and we supported her to undertake wider advocacy on the issues raised by her experiences. 

We advised many women on their rights and supported them to bring service complaints in light of their experiences of unacceptable behaviour by fellow service personnel. These included service police complaints some of which resulted in improved payouts being made to those women. We started a number of other Employment Tribunal sex discrimination claims throughout this year. 

We supported a number of people who sought assistance in relation to historic sexual abuse and assisted them to make criminal injuries compensation claims. 

We supported a number of bereaved families either directly through the provision of specific legal advice and assistance by us, or by referring them to other quality, specialist solicitors that could take on their cases. 

We continued to support and refer significant numbers of LGBT + veterans to other specialist charities for specialist therapeutic support and assistance, particularly following the announcement of a public inquiry into the treatment of LGBT+ veterans. We support the charity Fighting With Pride through our Director's work on their advisory panel. 

We supported a number of other racially minoritised service personnel who alleged that they had suffered race discrimination during their careers, to bring service complaints and/or bring legal proceedings and/or advised them about their rights.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 

Outreach/education: 

We published (with York University) via RUSI an article on the outcome of our research into the experiences of women in the military that report sexual violence. 

We spoke at an Amnesty International conference on the Legacy Act, with our client. 

We gave two lectures at the Defence Academy on human rights and the armed forces. 

We delivered a presentation about our work to MIND Bristol and spoke at a conference hosted by Irwin Mitchell on women in the armed forces. 

We met the Judge Advocate General to discuss concerns and issues arising in our work concerning the service justice system. 

Our Legacy Act client (the family of Pte Tony Harrison) was referred to in Parliament by the opposition during the Legacy Bill debates and statistics obtained by us cited in support of their opposition to the then-Government's proposals. 

Our Director appeared on Newsnight on 18/05/23 discussing sexual assaults in the armed forces; and on Woman's Hour, with the bereaved family of Jaysley Beck. 

We were invited to brief the opposition front bench in June 2023 on legal reforms needed for Service Personnel and we published a written briefing. 

We published a detailed briefing on the new CPS/SPA protocol for the handling of serious crimes in the military. 

We corresponded with the Secretary of State for Defence on the need for greater independence in the handling of service complaints (following the Beck case). 

We embarked upon a new 'racial justice workstream', with the assistance of an external consultant, Sandeep Kaur Michael, who joined CMJ from September 2023 on a part time consulting basis. 

We supported a number of women to give further evidence to the Defence Committee follow up inquiry on Women in the Armed Forces. 

We supported a number of veterans to express their opposition to the then Government's Rwanda Bill that would have risked removing from the UK individuals who had served alongside British forces in Afghanistan. Our Chair's letter to the Times was published and cited by Baroness Chakrabarti in her campaign to amend the Bill. 

We commented widely via our blogs and on social media on matters of relevance as they arose throughout the year including in relation to the latest statistics on sexual offending, racism in the Army, sexual harassment in the RAF, the Service Complaints Ombudsman for the Armed Forces and we supported the sister of Jaysley Beck to publish a blog on International Women's Day.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Centre For Military Justice 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Centre For Military Justice** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Centre For Military Justice (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
