MOD Working Arrangements with the Media

This document has been produced in consultation with editors and press and broadcasting organisations as a general guide to the procedures that the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (MOD) will adopt in working with the media throughout the full spectrum of military operations.

It covers the practical arrangements for enabling correspondents to report on operations, including the MOD's plans for representative numbers of correspondents to accompany British Forces and sets out what editors can expect from the MOD and what the MOD seeks from the media.
