Report will cost more money than any "mooted" savings.
The report will make zero difference to anybody in their current position, as cutting people's pay will see them leaving the services quickly and a shortage will result.
It will make claims that going forward the pay for a new Admirals pay should be reduced but nothing will happen as there are not many and few will be appointed.
More political posturing and spinning.
