How are Auxiliary members charged when they eat at the galley?

When Auxiliary members eat at the galley while they are under orders and assigned duty, they are charged the standard rate. This policy is designed to maintain consistency and fairness in how members are charged for meals based on their official status.

Being "under orders" indicates that members are performing their duties and are effectively acting in a capacity that requires them to be at the galley during specific times. In such situations, charging them the standard rate ensures that their meals are accounted for in line with regulations governing the Auxiliary and their operational status.

This approach helps to differentiate between those who are actively serving and those who may be visiting the galley for other reasons, such as socializing or stopping by while off duty. Therefore, it maintains the operational integrity of the service while providing support to those on active duty through appropriate meal charges.
