HC Deb 05 May 1987 vol 115 c359W
38. Mr. Greenway

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he has any plans to alter the Government's support for the boarding school allowance; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeman

Boarding school allowance continues to be justified by the need to help Service parents to provide a stable education for their children. As with other allowances, the rate is subject to review from time to time.
