Mr. David Cooney:
They come under different subheads. That subhead, salaries and allowances (non-pay), includes representation allowance, rent allowance and school fees but the foreign service allowance is included in the salary element. There are two elements: salaries and allowances (pay), which includes the foreign service allowance, and salaries and allowances (non-pay), which includes representation, medical and school fees allowances, etc.
