HC Deb 21 February 1978 vol 944 c552W
28. Mr. Goodhart

asked the Secretary of State for Defence when he expects to receive the next report of the Armed Forces Pay Review Body.

Mr. Mulley

The timing of the submission of its reports to the Prime Minister is a matter for the Armed Forces Pay Review Body. The Review Body is, of course, aware of the Government's undertaking last year that we would do all we could to ensure that the next pay award to the Forces would be applied in April. This remains our aim.
