General Sir George Jeffreysasked the Secretary of State for Air on what terms the personnel of the balloon barrage are being stood down; and whether they will be granted the same terms as regards leave as are being granted to officers of the R.A.F.V.R. who are being called on to resign their commissions on becoming redundant.
§ Sir A. SinclairSo far as possible, personnel of the Balloon Barrage are being absorbed into other vacancies. Officers who cannot be absorbed have the same entitlement to leave as other officers who are required to resign their commissions on account of redundancy.
