Charges to stay in mess when on duty?

My HR people are being most unhelpful on this one and I simply do not understand the logic of what they are saying.

When going away on duty eg an overnight to a MILITARY base HR (formerly known as admin) are saying that charges are to be levied from each individual. They are not entirely sure what the charges are and are yet to get back to me.

What charges might these be? Can I reclaim them of JPA if this really is true.

Has the world gone mad. Sent away on duty to a hotel - all charges covered.

Sent away on duty to a military base - you pick up the bill.

Any normal company ensures that when you are sent away on business, your costs are covered. What is going on - is this some mean way of clawing back the greater than 2% increase in pay which still does not cover the 9% increase in prices as published in the Telegraph today.
