The Prime Minister has announced an independent review of the rules and principles governing the awarding of military campaign medals. According to the MOD's own website the following are areas of particular interest:


Awards being considered after a period of five years has elapsed after a particular military action;



Individuals being rewarded twice for the same military campaign




Awards being based upon significant 'risk and rigour' for the individual concerned.
