Gents
My apologies for not responding to your posts on my arguments today. My DII would not let me log in and post on pprune (anyone else have this problem?)
Assuming this thread is still active, I intend to reply in detail to the points raised when time permits tomorrow evening.
Five main issues:
1 - I have no idea who I am supposed to have met last year - you've got me mixed up methinks!
2 - Contrary to what some here think - I'm not advocating that CS get X-Factor. I am pointing out that when deployed CS receive a salary boost called ODA which functions in a similar manner to X Factor for the duration of the deployment. A significant and critical difference.
3 - My use of the phrase specialist pay was innacurate - I meant to use allowances - forgive my poor terminology. I will discuss in detail later.
4 - Query re pay table - serious query as in the AFPRB reports they produce tables showing pay both with and without X-Factor. As its some time since I last looked at Non Commissioned pay (no normal need to), I genuinely could not tell which chart was being put up.
5- If someone can show me how to get round DII log ins, then happy to post CS pay tables. If not PM me.
