All personnel moving from Lye to Brize and requesting SFA have been told that there isn't actually enough, even if we use the bulk lease, SFA at Fairford, BZN and Shrivenham/Faringdon.
DE's solution - declare the LYE SFA site as surplus and recommend that people apply to stay in their current SFA until more becomes available.
Guys and girls claiming CEA at LYE and moving to BZN with onward postings within 24 months are all likely to lose their entitlement due to the 50 mile rule. A couple of guys have been refused postings away from LYE due to 'Service Needs' - is that likely to be taken into consideration with the new '2 assignment change of address' rule?
I know of at least one individual who has had the Service Needs card played twice in 3 years despite him wanting to move on promotion - will he lose his entitlement to CEA?
