It is not the RAF that is behind this situation - it is HMG.
Equally the RAF does not have any money of its own - its budget is determined by HMG.
In the Spring of 1939 Conscription was introduced for single Males aged 20-22 years. Naturally my Father, who was 25 (and married with a pregnant wife), was one of the first to be conscripted. No compensation was paid.
HMG will determine levels of compensation and will, if necessary, change the Law to suit its purposes.
