more or less in- the dependant position within general structure of the Essential Services Corps. These regula- lions seek to achieve this on lines already familiar in the case of the Auxiliary Fire Ser- vice.
It is considered desirable that the Civil Aid Services should if necessary be employed to deal with acts of God and other dis- astrous occurrences even when these occur independently of any hostile act.
