Chief of the Defence Staff Defence staff have worked with the Service Chiefs to establish a new pay model that addresses Service personnel’s concerns whilst continuing to meet the needs of the Armed Forces. The new pay model, called Pay16, was also discussed during the recent Strategic Defence and Security Review; it was agreed that the military pay model would be protected, that existing pay resources would be rebalanced and that it would not become a savings exercise. Rank continues to be the primary determinant of pay; incremental progression has been maintained. In addition Other Ranks will receive a trade-related supplement to pay, with placement in Supplements based on extensive Job Evaluation evidence. This will provide a pay model that is simpler and more transparent than Pay2000, is able better to target pay, and is more efficient. It also addresses key areas of Other Ranks’ dissatisfaction with the Pay2000, including elements known as ‘flip flop’, ‘pay overtaking’, and ‘overlap’, the details of which are described in this booklet.

  • MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN: IMPACT and EFFECTS Paul Rogers
    Oxford Research Group Briefing Paper – July 2010 MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN: IMPACT AND EFFECTS Paul Rogers EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report concludes that military action against Iran should be ruled out as a means of responding to its possible nuclear weapons ambitions. The consequences of such an attack would lead to a sustained conflict and regional instability that would be unlikely to prevent the eventual acquisition of nuclear weapons by Iran and might even encourage it. Oxford Research Group’s (ORG) analysis in its last report on the issue in 2006 (Iran: Consequences of a War ) examined the capabilities and intentions of the United States and Israel to carry out military action. While US action against Iran may now be unlikely, given the policies of the Obama administration, Israel’s potential for action against Iran has increased. This report examines the improvements in Israeli strike capabilities in the past four years and points to Israel’s newly developed ability to conduct major attacks on Iranian nuclear and missile programmes. Long-range strike aircraft acquired from the United States, combined with an improved fleet of tanker aircraft, the deployment of long-range drones and the probable availability of support facilities in north-east Iraq and Azerbaijan, all increase Israel’s potential for action against Iran. Many sections of the Israeli political elite regard the Iranian nuclear and missile programme as an existential threat to Israel. If there is no progress to curtail Iran’s nuclear ambitions by other means, there is significant Israeli support for military action. This might also extend to renewed action by Israel in southern Lebanon to counter the progressive re-arming of Hezbollah militias by Iran.
