Re: [Tei-council] Tokyo Per Diem

Hi Syd, My recollection was that we used the 70% of the USA rate when in the USA and not externally because the rate often was misjudged outside... but it may be that I was entirely reversed on that recollection. Maybe it was the reverse. I honestly am not sure and haven't found any documentation on it. I've submitted mine already but happy to use whatever Hugh says is right. ;-) Many thanks, James -- Dr James Cummings, James.Cummings@newcastle.ac.uk School of English Literature, Language, and Linguistics, Newcastle University ________________________________ From: Tei-council <tei-council-bounces@lists.tei-c.org> on behalf of Syd Bauman <s.bauman@northeastern.edu> Sent: 25 October 2018 18:27:29 To: TEI Council Subject: Re: [Tei-council] Tokyo Per Diem I came at it from a different direction, but get the same result as RV: The US Department of State Meals & Incidentals per diem rate for Tokyo is $227. (RV went to gsa.gov; I went to state.gov.) But I have a recollection that we are supposed to use 70% of that rate,[1] but cannot find documentation which says that, or which gives the division into breakfast, lunch, and dinner. RV, where did you find it? Anyone else know where it is? The documentation at https://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/Travel_Reimbursement_Procedures_for_Council... does not include this information. Notes ----- [1] Which would be $158.90, which is still an awful lot of money for one day of eating in Tokyo, at least where we were. Unless I hear otherwise, that's what I'm planning to use. _______________________________________________ Tei-council mailing list Tei-council@lists.tei-c.org http://lists.lists.tei-c.org/mailman/listinfo/tei-council
