HC Deb 29 January 1992 vol 202 c610W
Mr. Cohen

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list the salary scales of each grade of firefighter in the armed forces; and what mechanisms exist to study comparability with firefighters employed by fire and civil defence authorities.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

Service men trained in firefighting skills are paid at the same rate as other service personnel of equal rank and pay banding. No mechanism exists to study comparability with firefighters employed by fire and civil defence authorities.
