§ 22. Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Mooreasked the Minister of Fuel and Power what allowance of petrol is granted to officers of the Foreign and Colonial Services respectively, while on leave in this country.
§ The Minister of Fuel and Power (Mr. Gaitskell)A British civilian on leave from abroad would receive, in addition to the standard ration for his own car, a special allowance sufficient to provide for 150 miles of motoring.
§ Sir T. MooreHow does that correspond with the petrol allowance given to officers of the Fighting Services on leave?
§ Mr. GaitskellThe allowances for Service personnel are slightly larger than those for civilians.
