Agree with above.

I assume their duty ends after 7am and they are being asked to work their contacted hours. :hmmmm

If they finish at 7am then surely this is OT which cannot be forced.

Whats the problem ?

No prizes for what I will be doing for the next month, on a walk that can easily go over by an hour outside Xmas pressure. I have not ordered my official RM torch, sleeping bag and pyjamas.
