48. Captain MACDONALD (for Captain BALFOUR)asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air if Royal Air Force Officers posted for overseas service in His Majesty's aircraft carriers stationed abroad are allowed indulgence passages for wives and families under the same conditions as naval officers serving in these vessels and Royal Air Force officers serving at land stations overseas where married establishments are recognised?
§ Mr. MONTAGUEThe answer is in the affirmative, so far as it relates to Air Force officers; naval practice is, of course, a matter for the Admiralty. Indulgence passages for Air Force officers' wives and families are allowed under the same conditions whether the officers are serving His Majesty's aircraft carriers stationed abroad or at land stations overseas.
