HC Deb 24 June 1952 vol 502 c161W
104. Mr. H. Brooke

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury what arrangements exist, in the case of a man who has successfully taken an examination for the Civil Service some months before being demobilised from Her Majesty's Forces, to start his employment in the Civil Service as early as possible after demobilisation and thus avoid an interim period of enforced unemployment.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

I am satisfied that adequate arrangements exist to ensure that a man who has successfully taken an examination for the Civil Service some months before being demobilised from Her Majesty's Forces can be certificated and assigned immediately after he produces formal evidence of his discharge with a satisfactory record. If he has any individual cases of difficulty in mind I should be glad if he would send me the particulars.
