In answer to Lord Garden's question in the
House of Lords on Monday:
With regard to the morale of our troops, this may sound as if it is a long way from operations in Afghanistan, but it will be important to them: when will the Armed Forces Pay Review Body report be published? It is now more overdue than it has ever been, and it will be taken by the troops as a signal of how much the Government value what they are doing.
Lord Drayson (for the government) said the following:
I do not have an update for the House on the timing of the pay review report. If I can get some information, I will write to noble Lords with an answer.
Does anyone know if the gallant and noble Lord has written an answer to the House yet?
