HC Deb 27 April 1972 vol 835 c336W
Mr. R. C. Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will seek to amend the Redundancy Payments Act to ensure that payments for compulsory overtime are included as income for the purposes of assessing redundancy payments.

Mr. Dudley Smith

The Act already provides for this in so far as hours payable as overtime form part of the normal hours under the contract of employment.
