§ LORD PAKENHAM moved to insert:
| "National Service (Armed Forces) Act, 1939— | ||
| Section six | Postponement certificates. | For the references to the umpire or any deputy umpire appointed by his Majesty for the purposes of the Unemployment Insurance Act, 1935, there shall be substituted references to the umpire or any deputy umpire appointed by His Majesty for the purposes of the Reinstatement in Civil Employment Act, 1944. |
| Part II of the Schedule | Constitution of Military Service (Hard-ship) Committee. | For the reference to one or other of the panels constituted under section forty-one of the Unemployment Insurance Act, 1935, there shall be substituted a reference to any panel constituted for the purposes of section forty-three of this Act in connection with the establishment of the local tribunals referred to in subsection (3) of that section, and for the reference to a person holding the office of chairman of a court of referees under the said section forty-one there shall be substituted a reference to a person holding the office of chairman of any such local tribunal as aforesaid." |
§ The noble Lord said: The first part of this Amendment is consequential. The second part does introduce a very small fresh point. Part II of the Schedule to the National Service (Armed Forces) Act, 1939, provides that the chairman of a Military Service (Hardship) Committee shall be a person holding the office of Chairman of a Court of Referees, under the Unemployment Insurance Acts, and that the members of the Committee shall be drawn from panels which include all persons who are members of panels constituted for the Courts of Referees.
§ The Amendment to Part IV of the Eleventh Schedule provides that in constituting the Hardship Committees in future the Minister of Labour and National Service will be able to draw upon the chairmen of local tribunals and upon the panels of persons appointed under Clause 43 of this Bill. Those persons will be available for the purposes of the National Service (Armed Forces) Act, 1939. I beg to move.

§ LORD LLEWELLINWhether or not both halves of this Amendment are consequential, they are certainly both very much clearer than the original paragraph upon which they are based. I should have thought it fair to say that both these paragraphs were consequential.
§ On Question, Amendment agreed to.
§ Eleventh Schedule, as amended, agreed to.
§ Remaining Schedule agreed to.
