| Synopsis: |
This is the 38th report by the "Armed Forces' Pay Review Body", which provides independent advice to the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Defence on remuneration and charges for members of the naval, military and air forces of the Crown. The key recommendations in this review are: a 2.8 per cent increase in military salaries; a 2.8 per cent increase in specialist pay, compensatory allowances and reserves' bonuses; and, 3.7 per cent increase in Grade 1 SFA/SLA rental charges and lower graduated increases below Grade 1, a further phased increase to garage rent and daily food charge of GBP 4.07. There are also specific targeted pay measures, including: a 5 per cent minimum pay increase on promotion to OR6; new commitment bonuses and associated transitional arrangements; a reduction in the qualifying periods for longer separation allowance; new pay spines and specialist pay for service nurses; a new RN Clearance Divers' pay spine; and, two new supplementary rates of diving pay for EOD qualified divers and targeted increases to hydrographic pay. "The Review Body" estimates that the above recommendations will add 3.4 per cent to the Armed Forces' pay bill."The Review Body" also see the weakening labour market as giving the Services an advantage in recruitment and retention but new policies will be needed to compete in the labour market, when the country emerges from recession. A more strategic approach is also required to review elements of the remuneration package. "The Review Body" stresses the need to deliver on the Government's commitments under the July 2008 Service Personnel Command Paper ("The Nation's Commitment: Cross-Government Support to our Armed Forces, their Families and Veterans (Cm. 7424)" - ISBN 9780101742429, available below) and specifically to push forward on support for home ownership. |
