§ 1. Mr. William Shepherdasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster the conditions of employment of German nationals as domestic servants by the British occupational Forces, so far as they affect the notice required to be given by the employee to leave the position, and the notice required to be given by the employer.
§ The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (Mr. John Hynd)The same conditions apply whether the servants are employed by British or German nationals. Where employees are paid daily, one day's notice is necessary: for monthly paid servants notice must be given 14 days before the end of the month. For serious offences employment can be terminated at once. The periods of notice required are the same for both parties.
