HC Deb 13 November 1957 vol 577 cc45-6W
43. Mr. John Hall

asked the Minister of Defence, to what extent officers declared redundant, but whose releases are deferred beyond the miximum age of retirement laid down in their respective ranks are likely to suffer any loss of the special capital payment on retirement.

Mr. Sandys

Compensation is payable only to officers who are retired under the scheme before the normal retiring age for their rank. However, those who retire after reaching the retiring age will receive the special resettlement grant.
