Gentlemen (and Ladies?)
Yes, singlies will now be able to claim DA, at least in some circumstances. Also, the rank differential has been removed, in favour of basing the DA rates on the size of the accommodation you are moving to (a bit problematic, perhaps, if you are moving from a larger house to a smaller one?). The rates for moving into SFA are now rather lower than those for moving into private accommodation (good to see the Services doing even more to encourage occupation of SFA!).
Beware. There are heavy hints that DA rates are likely to move downwards again in future.
For your next piece of relaxing reading, JSP 754 - The Tri-Service Rules for Pay and Charges, is now available on the Defence Intranet.
