§ Mr. Whitlockasked the Secretary of State for Employment if, in his review of the provisions of the Redundancy Payments Act 1965, he will consider amending the Act so as to ensure that a person employed for the time being outside Great Britain shall be entitled to redundancy payment on termination of his employment, even though on the relevant date he is outside Great Britain.
§ Mr. ScottSince an employee who ordinarily works in Great Britain under his contract of employment does not lose his entitlement to a redundancy payment if he is outside Great Britain on the relevant date, no amendment of the Act would appear to be necessary.
