§ Mr. Sandelsonasked the Minister for the Civil Service what are the regulations concerning the use of British carriers when public funds are used to grant-aid air fares; and if he will consider issuing instructions that where Government funds are used to subsidise air travel, British 548W out a range of important public duties, into operation on 6th April 1977, together with the provisions relating to maternity pay and itemised pay statements about which an announcement has already been made.
I intend to bring into operation the remaining time-off provisions—Sections 57 and 58 of the Act, which deal with time off for trade union activities and duties—as soon as possible once the code of practice on these subjects required under the Act has been finalised and approved.
