(5) Time spent in the air raid shelter after official hours will not be reckoned as attendance, and officers are required to sign off at the time at which their normal official day ends.

(6) Under the above arrangements no officer will receive less than his normal rate of pay, but no officer will receive overtime payment in respect of any week unless the hours actually worked, plus any hours reckoned as official attendance under paragraph 3 above, amount to more than the hours to which he is conditioned, and the amount of overtime payment will be calculated accordingly. An officer conditioned to a 44 hour week will not receive overtime payment unless the absolute minimum cf 48 hours referred to in paragraph 2 of Establishment Branch Notice No. 85 has been worked.

(17) If the time lost as a result of air raid warnings is very considerable, some modification of the foregoing arrangements may be necessary. It is felt, however, that at a time when the work of the Service is of vital importance to the national cause, members of the Staff will readily respond to the needs of the situation, and that they will be glad to do what they reasonably can to make up time lost.
