Subject:	Inquiry on Public Service and Defence Forces Superannuation

The Secretary
Senate Select Committee on Superannuation and Financial Services

It is unfortunate that I have only just become aware of the subject inquiry but I wish to make my view known to the committee.
I retired from the RAAF in 1979 and have seen the little extras that we enjoyed over the years disappear due to rising costs. I understand that the members of the House of Representatives and the Senate have taken previous advice and have had their pensions indexed to Average Weekly Earnings. I presume this to be sound advice and request that my pension be similarly treated.

Yours Sincerely,

W.W.Reading
