§ Mr. Gwilym Robertsasked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will take steps to remove discrimination in the Armed Forces between officers, non-commissioned officers and other ranks by harmonising living conditions and general facilities; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. GoodhartThere are certain differences between the living conditions of officers, NCOs and other ranks. These reflect the differing obligations and levels of responsibility, including the administration of military discipline, and there are no plans to make any changes.
