HC Deb 30 July 1964 vol 699 c359W
36. Mr. Swingler

asked the Secretary for Technical Co-operation what proposals he has under consideration to enable professional teachers and civil servants from the United Kingdom to undertake career service in the developing territories of the Commonwealth without loss of pension rights and other benefits.

Mr. R. Carr

The opportunities for a career service in the developing countries for teachers and civil servants from Britain are fast disappearing. The need is for teachers and civil servants with home-based careers to give a limited period of their career to work overseas and satisfactory arrangements already exist for preserving pension rights and other benefits to enable them to do this.
