HC Deb 01 November 1946 vol 428 c163W
Captain Bullock

asked the Secretary of State for Air for what reason men in the R.A.F. are paid fortnightly, whereas men in the other two Services are paid weekly; and whether he will make arrangements to pay R.A.F. personnel on a weekly basis.

Mr. de Freitas

Pay parades in the three Services are held at varying intervals of a week to a month. I am not aware of any general desire in the Royal Air Force to have weekly pay parades Such a change could not in any case be made without still further delaying release in the accounting trades.
