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


Armed Forces Bill

I seek further clarification, because the hon. Gentleman has made an interesting point. The purpose of the continuity of education allowance is to help those personnel who are serving overseas, but he has said that it applies to personnel who serve in different parts of the United Kingdom. He has mentioned Rosyth, and we have some excellent schools in West Fife. There would be no problem with the children of personnel getting into some of our excellent schools, and I am happy to recommend some of them to him.
