§ Mr. Lipsonasked the Secretary of State for Air whether personnel who are honourably discharged from the R.A.F. before the release scheme starts to operate will be entitled to receive any grant in respect of foreign service.
§ Sir A. SinclairYes, Sir. Personnel honourably discharged from the Royal Air Force before the Release Scheme starts to operate will, if they have served overseas 513W for a minimum period of six months, receive foreign service grants at the rate of one day's pay and allowances for every month of overseas service. Applications for foreign service grants will be invited at the same time as applications for war gratuity.
