Operational Allowance Question

[ALM In Waiting]

Hi All,
Does anyone know what the score is regarding Op allowance when flying into Theatre and out again in a day? Do you need to be 'in Theatre' a full 24hrs to be eligble or are you paid for going into the Operational Area at a days rate regardless of the time spent in Theatre? Thanks in advance.
