Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department's recent research into the service history of Flight Sergeant Peter Brown established whether he was paid the same rate of (a) war service gratuity payment and (b) post war service credit upon leaving the Royal Air Force in 1950 as white service personnel of the same rank engaged in the same duties discharged in the same period.

Flight Sergeant Brown would have received exactly the same renumeration as any other member of the Royal Air Force with the same rank, trade, and seniority, regardless of race or ethnicity.
