HC Deb 22 November 1985 vol 87 c352W
Mr. Best

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what representations he has received relating to the exclusion from membership of the Territorial Army of certain categories of public employees; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Norman Lamont

No representations have been received on the principle of excluding certain categories of public employee from joining the Territorial Army but there have been individual cases where a waiver has been sought.
