§ Mr. FORESTIER-WALKERasked the Under-Secretary of State to the Air Ministry whether he is aware that the 1d. per day war pay is not applicable to the Royal Air Force; and whether he is prepared to put the members of the Royal Air Force on the same basis as they would have been had they still been in the Royal Flying Corps as regards pay and war pay?
§ General SEELYWar pay is not granted to members of the Royal Air Force with certain exceptions, for the reason that the rates of pay were fixed on an inclusive basis. Members of the Royal Air Force who were transferred from the Royal Flying Corps were allowed, on transfer, either the Royal Flying Corps rate of pay (plus war pay) or the Royal Air Force rate (excluding war pay), whichever was the more beneficial.
