The hon. Member for East Fulham (Mr. Astor) said that the people of London were very satisfied with the way in which bomb-damage repairs have been carried out.

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether sisters in the P.M.R.A.F. Nursing Service, serving with mobile field hospitals in S.E.A.C., receive the Japanese campaign pay or the war increment pay as do members of the W.A.A.F., A.T.S. and W.R.N.S. working in offices in towns in India and Ceylon.
It was certainly very convenient for them.
