I'm confused, ATG. You say that it is HMT policy, not the MOD's. Is it HMT policy to only pursue 'other ranks' for monies that it deems were incorrectly paid out?
Other posts suggest that some commissioned officers have been in receipt of AIP, or do I have that wrong? Did they all comply with the subsequent reviews (by HMT?), whereas 'other ranks' did not? Or is there one rule for Officers, Gentlemen, and Ladies, and another for 'other ranks'?
There is a stink of much hand washing here, and an appalling lack of leadership. Or do I have that wrong as well?
