Melchett, you raise many valid points. The AFPRB is already hobbled by Goverment directions that X% is all they can afford during each financial year, but even when they try to focus pay rises on targeted choke point trades and branches, there is an element of blanket rises within those Trades and Branches. This initiative, which incidentally, smells like a crock of 5h1t and will become policy, it will reflect the inequities of the Civil Service bonus scheme and lead to fracturing of esprit de corps. We already have differential pay for different capabilities within the military, albeit an unfair differentiation, which creates some friction. This idea will be even more so.
