Parents could be FINED if their teenagers fail to do National Service

Quote:
Parents may be fined if their adult children fail to do their National Service when they turn 18, a minister suggested today.

Anne-Marie Trevelyan declined to rule out financial penalties linked to Rishi Sunak's election pledge to make teens spend a year in the military or do unpaid weekend community work.

The proposal, which was unveiled yesterday has triggered a major row, the first of the nascent general election campaign.

Ms Trevelyan, the Foreign Office Minister, said today that many details of the scheme would be set out in a Royal Commission, and refused to rule out punishing parents if their adult offspring refused to take part.
