HC Deb 16 March 1944 vol 398 cc424-5W
Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of Labour if an employee who, by reason of age, is not liable to be called up for service with His Majesty's Forces, or who by reason of employment such as a nurse is not called up but resigns for the purpose of undertaking war service, will be allowed to claim reinstatement in the employment from which such employee resigned.

Mr. E. Bevin

I would refer my hon. Friend to the proposals in the Reinstatement in Civil Employment Bill, which would cover cases such as those described in the Question if the war service was one of the forms specified in Clause 6 of the Bill, but not otherwise.
