answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2017 answer text <p>No such discussions have taken place. A Deployed Welfare Package is usually put in place on operations to ensure Service personnel can stay in communications with those at home. Due to the short duration of this operation, in lieu of a Deployed Welfare Package, all of those deployed have been paid a Local Overseas Allowance. This contributes towards the necessary additional local cost of day-to-day living when Service personnel are required to serve overseas. In this deployment, this allowance was paid in addition to that given to Service personnel who were living under 'field conditions', where their food and accommodation charges are waived.</p> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 25/10/2017 15:59:00 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton
