Travel budget? What travel budget?

Can a writer or similar tell me why all overseas travel is now cancelled unless approved at 1* level?

Is the Mob that short of money?

 

Either we're woefully uninformed at our end or someone's fobbing you off at your end, but this is the first I've heard of any such thing. I don't deal with travel personally, but our Civvy Travel Clerk is currently doing a passable Oliver Hardy impression since I asked him that question.

 

Yes.

If you work for the FLEET organisation or DLO, then there is a complete block on Travel and Subs unless authorised at the highest level.

FLEET has also ceased Civil Servant recruitment unless approved by a 1*

 

So what you are saying is that the mob is woefully short of money!!!!!!!!!!!

 

We're skinter than a very skint thing which has just lost it's wallet.

Yes - very very skint.
