The Chairman is John Steele and he's been there since 2013. How much more bedding in does he need?

Really, the whole situation is somewhat of a disgrace. New Food and Accommodation charges commence in a matter of 2 weeks.....and no-one knows what they are yet.

Let alone the good news of another pay drop in real terms.....

And many think we should be grateful...

I remember driving home to Swaffham one day in 1973 and hearing on the car radio that the armed forces were getting a 20% pay rise (I think it was).

The bad news was that inflation hit 25% that year!

plus ca change!

News channels reporting death of Martin McGuinness. If I were cynical it seems like a good day for a flurry of announcements.

It will be ready to go, just cant be released to the public. Im sure JPA would have been updated ready for the main pay run.

I'm sure there was a post with a document attached that just seemed to vanish.... any thoughts

Just to 'whet your appetites', inflation, year to Feb '17:

RPI: 3.2%

CPIH: 2.3%

CPI: 2.3%

Did anyone get a copy?
 

I'm sure there were a few watching this who saved a copy for posterity! :rolleyes:

It was in the public domain after all!

It has clearly been removed, from this and the Retention Review thread which has been quashed. MoD has been in touch with the Mods!

There are copies to be found....

A bit early...
 

That certainly wasn't what we were expecting.....simply not enough.

Sounds like too little too late.....and very sensitive. I await formal notification from official channels in short order.....but it would seem that the cat may be out of the bag.

Sorry if I've missed the obvious, but has the AFPRB 2017 report been released? I can't find any details on a google search and I've no access to DII for the next few days. Can somebody PM it to me perhaps?

Nothing as yet I'm afraid....nada.....zilch....distressingly....

I'd be very interested in its contents, even a precis! However, if it has been leaked, then that is poor form.....

It was reference to the new RRP (F)...

It's certainly doing the rounds.

It gets published online. No need for a defence portal.

Last year's was available online from the get go.

Oh dear, reckon someone is going to be very much in the p** for that little glimpse...!

Memories of Speckled Jim...?!

BM, if it was anything like the Amarillo virus that crashed the MOD Servers, the email list will be so long as to make a leak check near impossible.

"And do you have a PPrune account on your computer?"

The report will be released on Friday according to the AFPRB.

All of a week before the new Food and Accn charges take effect no doubt.....nice...
