I assume they’ll be building in appropriate rest breaks and time between shifts
I’d love to see the CACE approval for it. 
I imagine the weighty donation from RAFCT outweighs the VA cost…

So what you’re saying is this is a clever way of turning public funds into non-public funds? 
(/s)
But have they any tents, of a suitable standard?
This sounds like a politicians way of saying no alcohol.

You might get to thanks to FOI Request…
Not quite what I meant, but will be interesting to see.
Given how much we’re banging on about budget and cutting VA days etc, RIAT does seem like an awfully big expense. Especially as we are basically providing a service.
Also interesting seeing another FOI supposedly from my Dep OC Wing. Intrigued if it’s actually him, or just someone using his name Pretty sure if he saw me put in an FOI I’d be getting in trouble for some obscure reason.
£20 spend, as a guess it is for a hat and T-shirt.

It would be nice if the RAFCT could provide these (and a water bottle) instead of us paying?
Baseball cap, t-shirt, lanyard/passholder water-bottle
(although i recognise in that photo they look to be RAF/RAFAC lanyards in the past they have been RIAT branded)
TBF the baseball caps are RAFCTE supplied - they are not unique to RAFAC, every volunteer at RIAT gets a RIAT baseball cap with the year embroidered into it - they become collectors items amougst the volunteers as the collection can quickly build up!
