§ 101. Major Legge-Bourkeasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury what arrangements have been made regarding leave with pay for members of the Civil 104W Service who are volunteers in the Territorial Army.
§ Mr. JayCivil servants who are volunteer members of the Territorial Army are granted special leave with pay to attend camp as follows:
- Staff who are entitled to 18 days' annual leave or less—the whole of the period spent in camp subject to a limit of 12 working days:
- Staff who are entitled to 19–23 days' annual leave—three-quarters of the period spent in camp subject to a limit of nine working days:
- Staff who are entitled to 24 days' annual leave or more—half the period spent in camp subject to a limit of six working days.
The balance of the period of absence for staff in the two latter categories may be taken either as annual leave or as special leave without pay.
These terms apply to all full-time civil servants except temporary staff with less than six months' service. Proportionate allowances are made for part-time staff and staff working a five-day week.
Civil servants who, as National Service men, are posted to the Territorial Army on the completion of their full-time National Service and who do not volunteer for full membership of the Territorial Army, are required to take annual leave or special leave without pay during their attendance at camp.
