Commander Land Forces is a senior British Army officer who has responsibility for generating and preparing forces for current and contingency operations. He reports to the Chief of the General Staff who has executive responsibility for the higher command of the British Army. The responsibilities of the Commander Land Forces were exercised through Land Command from 1 April 1995 to 1 April 2008. From 1 April 2008, HQ Land Command, with elements of HQ Adjutant-General, became HQ Land Forces. From 1 November 2011, HQ Land Forces was subsumed within the new formation known as Army Headquarters. With this new organisation, the rank of Commander, Land Forces has been shifted to that of a three-star instead of the former four-star rank.
