§ Mr. Bryant Godman Irvineasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will now make a 101W statement about children's holiday passages for supplemented staff working overseas.
§ Mr. WoodIn consultation with the overseas Governments concerned and subject to a contribution from parents, I propose to introduce a third annual holiday visit passage for children under 18 of staff working overseas who are supplemented under the overseas service aid scheme. This will be available during the coming Easter holidays. Supplemented officers will not be eligible for this concession while they have certain allowances, which are more favourable than those of British Government staff. The necessary arrangements will be made with the individual officers concerned.
