The Redundant Association Officers Compensation Regulations 1967

Persons in national service

4.—(1) If a person in national service who has been employed as an officer of an Association and would be so employed but for that national service is not offered re-employment in his former office on the conclusion of that national service, or is offered re-employment with emoluments less than those which he would have enjoyed had his employment not ceased by reason of his national service, he shall for the purposes of these regulations be deemed to have lost his employment or suffered a diminution in his emoluments, as the case may be, as such an officer;

Provided that this regulation shall not apply to a person who has not before the expiry of two months from the cessation of national service, or, if prevented by sickness or other reasonable cause, as soon as practicable thereafter, given notice to the Association by which he was employed that he is or will be available for employment.

(2) For the purpose of these regulations the date at which such a person as is referred to in paragraph (1) of this regulation is deemed to have lost his employment as an officer of an Association shall be the earlier of the two following dates, that is to say:—

(a) the date of refusal of re-employment, or

(b) the date one month after the date on which he gave notice that he was or would be available for employment:

and he shall on the date on which he is deemed to have lost his employment be deemed to have been entitled to the emoluments which he would have enjoyed on that date had he continued in his employment without having been engaged in national service.
