75. Sir F. HALLasked the Under secretary of State to the Air Ministry if he can state what amount of technical pay, if any, it has been decided to award to technical officers in Class A of the Royal Air Force whether the same is to be retrospective from the 1st September, 1918, and will include technical officers demobilised before the decision has been arrived at; and, if so, whether an officer who would thus be entitled to additional pay can claim the same together with gratuity based on the larger amount of pay?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for AIR (Major-General Seely)The whole question of pay is now under consideration, and I hope to be able to give further information in a short time. Perhaps the hon. and gallant Gentleman will put down a question next week.
