§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Minister of State for Defence whether he will request the independent Armed Forces Pay Review Body to investigate the present situation where young married Servicemen, particularly those who are still under training, and older men, with several children, who have not secured promotion, receive less in take-home pay than a number of people on supplementary benefit payments, with a view to adjusting the pay of these Servicemen.
§ Mr. Ian GilmourNo. The independence of the review body includes deciding on its own investigations.
