Response to a question put yesterday to the Government and recorded in the House of Lords Hansard 9 January 2007 Colmn WA63
Lord Burnett asked Her Majesty's Government:
"Which additional allowances are payable to British Troops deployed on active service in Afghanistan?"
Lord Drayson replied.

(See also colmn WA 64 response by Drayson to Question tabled by Lord Astor -Sgt Steven Roberts nquiry)
I post if only to allow the service community to check and compare anything Drayson announces in their Lordship's House with the reality of their lives.
Drayson is as slippery as they come and anything he says needs to be studied very carefully.
