§ 53. Mr. DAYasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether all public service employés in Government industrial establishments who have completed a full year's service now receive a weekly holiday, with pay, plus leave with pay on ordinary public holidays; and will he give particulars?
§ Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCEYes, Sir. Employés in Government industrial establishments who have completed a full year's service are entitled to a minimum of six days leave with pay plus five paid public holidays. Arrangements for giving effect to the rule vary in different Departments according to the exigencies of the public service.
§ Mr. DAYCan my hon. Friend say whether any arrangements have been made for other employés of the Government to have holidays with pay?
§ Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCEI think I am right in saying that all employés of the Government have now their annual holiday. The extension to industrial workers which was made about two years ago completed the practice.
