Proceeding contribution from Alun Cairns (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.


Armed Forces Bill

I am grateful to the shadow Secretary of State for giving way. I certainly support the actions of the Government in doubling the operational allowance. If the right hon. Gentleman thought so highly of the forces when he was a member of the previous Administration, why was the operational allowance pitched at such a low level?
